Thinking back
Did you find what you were looking for?
Did you cry till your eyes were red raw?
You knew the score before, it's not like you drew straws
This is not
The first time it's crossed your mind
The lights they change, you stall for time
It's on my side, and I hope that she is too
Where I'm from things are what they are
And whatever will be will be, que sera
Well did you ask her? You should've
Well did you ask him? I would've
Opportunity knocks then it runs
You think your luck won't change
But you could just come up trumps
Well did you ask her? How could I?
Well did you ask him? How should I?
She arrives
Like an elbow from the passenger side
The Mona Lisa attempts to hide
A mouth wide in envy
Short of breath long may it last
In the rave
Her sunglasses stay in place, forever unfazed and never amazed
Not a childhood sweetheart, and so much more than a coming of age
Where I'm from things are what they are
And whatever will be will be, oh que sera
Well did he find out? I hope so
Well did she find out? Oh please no
Opportunity knocks then it runs
You think your luck won't change
But you could just come up trumps
Well did he find out? It's a secret
Well did she find out? I'll leave it
And will it always be like this?
And if it isn't what will we do oh
To be young and in love
To be young and in love with you
It makes my stomach somersault
At the notion that you could leave oh
To be young and in love
Is to be equally as naïve
Time flies, mistake it for fun
'Cos there's nothing on the TV for free
He never asked her when he should've
She always wished that he would've
Monday to Sunday and back
Nine five for a week away, are the kids ok?
Laugh loud as they both remember
See you some time next December
