See You When You're 40
I've driven round in circles for three hoursIt was bound to happen that I'd end up at yoursI temporarily forgot there's better days to comeI thought that I would give it just one more chance
'cause I want, tonight, what I've been waiting forBut I found, tonight, what I'd been warned about
You think you are complicated, deep mystery to allWell it's taken me a while to see, you're not so specialAll energy no meaning, with a lot of wordsSo paper thin that one real feeling, could knock you down
And I've seen, tonight, what I'd been warned aboutI'm gonna leave, tonight, before I change my mind
So see you when you're 40, lost and all aloneBeing comforted by strangers you'll never need to knowNot sad because you lost meBut sad because you thought it was cool to be sad
You think misery will make you stand apart from the crowdWell if you had walked past me today I wouldn't have picked you outI wouldn't have picked you outI wouldn't have picked you out
Now I've seen, tonight, how could I waste my timeAnd I'll be on my way, and I won't be back'Cause I've seen, tonight, what I've been warned aboutYou're just a boy, not a man, and I'm not coming back
