Songtext von The Modern Age

Up on a hill is where we begin This little story a long time ago Stop to pretend, stop pretending It seems this game is simply never-ending Oh, in the sun, sun having fun, it's in my blood I just can't help it Don't want you here right now, let me go Oh, let me g-g-g-g-g-g-go Leavin' just in time Stay there for a while Rolling in the ocean Trying to catch her eye Work hard and say it's easy Do it just to please me Tomorrow will be different So I'll pretend I'm leaving I feel so different now we trained in A-V-A I wish you hadn't stayed, my vision's clearer now, but I'm unafraid Flying overseas, no time to feel the breeze I took too many varieties Oh, in the sun, sun having fun, it's in my blood I just can't help it Don't want you here right now, let me go Oh, darling let me g-g-g-g-g-g-go Leaving just in time Stay there for a while Rolling in the ocean Trying to catch her eye Work hard and say it's easy Do it just to please me Tomorrow will be different So this is why I'm leaving
