It's getting late, I think my time is running out
No-one special, nothing lasting within sight
How should I stay calm when panic lies just ahead
Everyone can see my youth hanging by a thread
No subtle men came to my town
No subtle men begging for my hand
I'm one of few who's left when everyone has gone
The train is leaving and it's too late to get on
So much for running when no-one stays to wait
For another broken promise to slip my mind by mistake
Who would take my word on anything these days
I've failed so many times saying "I'm gonna change"
No subtle men came to my town
No subtle men
No lifelong friend lives in my town
No subtle men begging for my hand
No-one special, nothing lasting within sight
How should I stay calm when panic lies just ahead
Everyone can see my youth hanging by a thread
No subtle men came to my town
No subtle men begging for my hand
I'm one of few who's left when everyone has gone
The train is leaving and it's too late to get on
So much for running when no-one stays to wait
For another broken promise to slip my mind by mistake
Who would take my word on anything these days
I've failed so many times saying "I'm gonna change"
No subtle men came to my town
No subtle men
No lifelong friend lives in my town
No subtle men begging for my hand
