Lyrics
It wasn't all that long ago that you sat weaving dreams But things don't look so rosy now you're this side of eighteen It wasn't all that long ago you gazed up at the stars And smiled 'cause you know just who you are Suddenly the good time's gone and I just don't know why And where did all the good times go, they never said goodbye Well there's too much damn pollution here and I don't see no stars Look in the mirror, say I don't know who you are But you've had much colder nights And things will be alright Alright And is it meant to set me free to know you're leaving town? To have no fear you'll disappear and I won't see you around Well it doesn't make me happy and it doesn't make me smile Because my heart don't take no notice of the miles And you can call me stupid and you can call me naïve But I don't think that things will be that different when you leave I've had you sitting next to me and being miles away I think I'd be no better off if you would stay If I got down on my knees Asked you to set me free You'd say no So take me and break me darling, do what you will Feed upon my dignity and leave me with the bill If we're honest, you never really did anything else But you're my kryptonite and that's something I can't help But I'll get strong and I'll move on without too many scars Learn to tell the difference between aeroplanes and stars You'll get old and still more cold and see the reason that you hid Was I loved you in a way that no one did If I cried my eyes red raw Till I could cry no more And what for It wasn't all that long ago you understood the rules Of love and life and unrequited underdogs and fools But that was all before the last straw left you on the floor And you don't understand a thing anymore But you played the cards you're dealt However hard it felt And you smiled into the sky As you began to cry And you knew why And you knew why
