I remember we were standing on a street in the rain
Downtown where none of us will be able to afford to live again
You were looking for some cigarettes in your purse and you cursed
And I fell in love to the sound of that obscene and lovely word
You were older, you were vicious, I was younger and not suspicious
That I was being f**ked around
I was I was I won't I don't want to talk about this now
Until you see my face ten years don't seem like a long time
But I'm older now than you were then when I was your younger man
I remember we were running from who you left before me
I remember being dumb and drunk and happy
I remember you squinting as the smoke got in your eyes
And being ID'd following you into bars while you stalked other guys
Until you see my face ten years don't seem like a long time
But I'm older now than you were then when I, when I . . .
Everyone said it would end badly, it took a while but it did
And I hung my head sadly and got used to it
I'll see you at some funeral you know I've got a few in mind
We'll be fighting but I'll be smiling because, remember that time
I saw your face and thought ten years ain't such a long time
Oh I'm older now than you were then when I
When I saw your face and thought ten years ain't such a long time
But I'm older now than you were then when I was your younger man
Downtown where none of us will be able to afford to live again
You were looking for some cigarettes in your purse and you cursed
And I fell in love to the sound of that obscene and lovely word
