Intro : (2x)
Winding paths through tables and glass
First flowers bloom
Now watch the Summer pass
So close to you
Too late to keep the change
Too late to pay
No time to stay the same
Too young to leave

No pass out s ign on the d oor set me thin king
Are w aitresses pa ying the pr ice of their winking
While s tars sit at b ars and deci de what they're dr inking
They stop by the d ie because it's f aster than sink ing
Too late to keep the change
Too late to pay
No time to stay the same
Too young to leave
Find out that n ow was the an swer to answ ers

She did the t hings that we bo th did before now
But who for gave her ?
If I could stand to s ee her crying
I would tell her n ot to care
When she learns of a ll your lying
Will she join you the re ?

Got to make you un derstand . . . .
