the strokes
the modern age
Up on a hill is where we begin This little story a long time ago Start 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 Leaving just in time Staying 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 our fears are different here We train in AVA 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 Staying 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.
