Thirty Three - Loon Lake

I saw you in the park, reading books

On How to start a relationship;

When you find someone new

Nearly bit off my tongue

Trying to hold the words from coming out wrong

And disappointing you

But you go out

And you leave me mascara

Hides the shame on your face

What if the wind catches your perfume?

Close the shutters of my bedroom in case

Would you remember me?

When you’re thirty-three

As more than just a little fun

You see, I don’t want to be

Just a memory

But I know I’ll never be your one

Cause the time, wasn’t right

For you and me

In my mind

It’s not quite, the way

You thought it would be

Caught a cab

For my broken-heart

Gave the driver, my credit card

And said Don’t stop till the black turns to dusk.

Oh the smoke, from your photograph

To inhale or (it ought to pass?)

But the whole thing burns to noth (nut?)

But you go out in the evenings

Mascara hides the shame on your face

What if the wind catches your perfume?

Close the shutters of my bedroom in case

Would you remember me?

When you’re thirty-three

As more than just a little fun

You see, I don’t want to be

Just a memory

But I know I’ll never be your one

Cause the time, wasn’t right

For you and me

In my mind

It’s not quite, the way

I thought it would be

Would you remember me?

When you’re thirty-three

As more than just a little fun

You see, I don’t want to be

Just a memory

When I know I’ll never be your one

Cause the time, wasn’t right

For you and me

In my mind

It’s not quite, the way

You thought it would be
