You could be beautiful, as you know that you were meant to be

You could have sparkling eyes, you could be walking along with me

You could be looking at those things that no one else could see

But no, this is where you’d rather be

 

We could be arguing, after all that’s what we used to do

We could be making up, although I would still be mad at you

We could be laughing at our younger selves and derrings-do

But no, that wasn’t good enough for you

 

I’m taking stock of things, as the autumn leaves fall over you

I’m thinking possibly I was wrong and what you said was true

‘Cause after all it’s not like I will live a thousand years

At least you had fun while you were here

 

No after all it’s not as if I will live for a thousand years

At least you had fun while you were here

At least you had fun while you were here
