I've driven round in circles for 3 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

'Cos I want tonight
What I've been waiting for
But I've 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, no one revealing 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
Who never need to know
Not sad because you lost me, sad because you thought it was cool to be sad
You think misery will make you stand apart from the crowd
If you walked by 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
'Cos I've seen tonight
What I've been wrong about
You're just a boy, not a man
And I'm not coming back

And I'm not coming back
What I've been wrong about
