Lyrics
Age of Reason
I really meant to love you strong,
I really meant to love you long
History may be made at night
Doesn't mean it always turns out right
Blues fell this morning
Pouring down like rain
After what you did baby
Never gonna be the same
Staring out a window with a broken pane
I won't be travelling this way again
High risk, no reward
I'm just gonna go on back to being bored
Meet me in the bottom
Bring me my running shoes
Help me in this race
We're all bound to lose
Accidental tourist, out of season
I'm just an innocent bystander to your age of reason
Take a chance on love the songs all say
Never a hint it might work out this way
Never miss your water till the well runs dry
Never miss your baby when you're satisfied
One last shot, you'd better make it true
Cause you're always leaving me feeling blue
Nothing's cold as ashes when the fire is gone
Nothing feels worse than when you know you're wrong
Hand full of "gimme," mouth full of "much obliged"
Don't know why I cared, why I even tried
