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 meanin' with a lot of words So paper thin the 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 forty, 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 But you had walked past me today I wouldn't have picked you out, I wouldn't have picked you out 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 comin' back And I'm not comin' back what I've been warned about
