Текст песни: See You When You're 40 + перевод

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

And I’m not coming back

What I’d been warned about
