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-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 pretend I'm leavin'

Our fears are different now
We train an 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 sunshine having fun
It's in my blood, I just can't help it
Don't want you here right now. let me go, woo
Darlin', let me g-g-g-g-g-g-go

Leaving just in time
Staying for a while
Rollin' in the ocean
Tryin' 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 leavin'
