See You When You`re 40 lyrics

Artist  : Dido 
Song : See You When You`re 40
 



I've driven round in circles for three hours

It was bound to happen that I'd end up at
your

I temporarily forgot there's better days to
come

I thought that I would give it just one more
chance



Cos' I want, tonight, what I've been waiting
for

But I found, tonight, what I'd been warned
about



You think that 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 me when your 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



now I've seen, tonight, how I could waste my
time

and I'll be on my way, and I won't be back

cos I've seen, tonight, what I've been warned
about

your just a boy, not a man, and I'm not coming
back
