See You When You're 40

Lyrics

I've driven round in circles for three hours
 It was bound to happen that I'd end up at yours
 I temporarily forgot there's better days to come
 I thought that I would give it just one more chance
 'cause I want, tonight, what I've been waiting for
 But I found, tonight, what I'd been warned about
 You think you are complicated, deep mystery to all
 Well it's taken me a while to see, you're not so special
 All energy no meaning, with a lot of words
 So paper thin that one real feeling, could knock you down
 And I've seen, tonight, what I'd been warned about
 I'm gonna leave, tonight, before I change my mind
 So see you when you're 40, lost and all alone
 Being comforted by strangers you'll never need to know
 Not sad because you lost me
 But sad because you thought it was cool to be sad
 You think misery will make you stand apart from the crowd
 Well if you had walked past me today I wouldn't have picked you out
 I wouldn't have picked you out
 I wouldn't have picked you out
 Now I've seen, tonight, how could I waste my time
 And I'll be on my way, and I won't be back
 'cause I've seen, tonight, what I've been warned about
 You're just a boy, not a man, and I'm not coming back
