lyrics

You said
You had it down to a science
I didn't try to deny it
But if left me cold, cold, cold

I stood
I was looking at numbers
I tried to change my color
But I'm too old, old, old

Still though
I've got nothing but patience
And an ego that's waiting
To move on, on, on

It stays
Hiding in all the memories
Some kind of tender energy
That's all gone

[Chorus]
And I know, and I know, and I know
That it's always the simple things
And I know, and I know, and I know
You've got me lost around the edges of some kind of familiar taste
And I know, and I know, and I know
You loved me back when we were kings
And I know, and I know, and I know
Those days were happy but it feels like the memories have all been erased

Those days were happy but it feels like the memories have all been erased

In a moments of pressure
Chalk it up displeasure
And you move on, on, on

Still though
I was looking at figures
Trying to get the picture
But you moved on, on, on

[Chorus]
