Bad Summer
For twenty five seconds
We were back then and
You were twenty six and
I was twenty seven
You said, "There's nothing more depressing
Than other people's weddings
Or birthdays or Christmas"
I'd already stopped listening
And I asked you
If I knew you
You said we'd met like a million times
I had no doubt
Then we walked out
It was warm out
We were headed to the park
Dressing for the rain
You said it wouldn't last
Said nothing stays the same
Daughters of lonely sons
Yeah, you're not the only one
And sons of lonely girls
Who told them they'd change the world
Maybe they should never
Have sat us together
We were bad news
In good weather
I walked you to the station
And showed you constellations
Orion was glistening
You'd already stopped listening
We stayed up
'Til we broke down
What else were we gonna do?
And England
In the sunshine
Is a landmine
We were headed to the park
Dressing for the rain
You said it wouldn't last
Said nothing stays the same
Daughters of lonely sons
Yeah, you're not the only one
And sons of lonely girls
Who told them they'd change the world
Headed to the park
Dressing for the rain
You said it wouldn't last
They said it wouldn't last
Said nothing stays the same
We were headed to the park
Dressing for the rain
You said it wouldn't last
Said nothing stays the same
Daughters of lonely sons
Yeah, you're not the only one
And sons of lonely girls
Who told them they'd change the world
We were back then and
You were twenty six and
I was twenty seven
You said, "There's nothing more depressing
Than other people's weddings
Or birthdays or Christmas"
I'd already stopped listening
And I asked you
If I knew you
You said we'd met like a million times
I had no doubt
Then we walked out
It was warm out
We were headed to the park
Dressing for the rain
You said it wouldn't last
Said nothing stays the same
Daughters of lonely sons
Yeah, you're not the only one
And sons of lonely girls
Who told them they'd change the world
Maybe they should never
Have sat us together
We were bad news
In good weather
I walked you to the station
And showed you constellations
Orion was glistening
You'd already stopped listening
We stayed up
'Til we broke down
What else were we gonna do?
And England
In the sunshine
Is a landmine
We were headed to the park
Dressing for the rain
You said it wouldn't last
Said nothing stays the same
Daughters of lonely sons
Yeah, you're not the only one
And sons of lonely girls
Who told them they'd change the world
Headed to the park
Dressing for the rain
You said it wouldn't last
They said it wouldn't last
Said nothing stays the same
We were headed to the park
Dressing for the rain
You said it wouldn't last
Said nothing stays the same
Daughters of lonely sons
Yeah, you're not the only one
And sons of lonely girls
Who told them they'd change the world
