Being Boring歌词

[00:36.83]I came across a cache of old photos
[00:39.77]
[00:40.39]And invitations to teenage parties
[00:43.76]
[00:44.82]Dress in white one said, with quotations
[00:47.69]
[00:48.26]From someone's wife, a famous writer
[00:52.12]In the nineteen-twenties
[00:54.93]
[00:56.93]When you're young you find inspiration
[00:59.55]
[01:00.30]In anyone who's ever gone
[01:03.61]
[01:04.86]And opened up a closing door
[01:07.66]
[01:08.53]She said We were never feeling bored
[01:12.53]
[01:15.34]'Cause we were never being boring
[01:17.65]
[01:19.08]We had too much time to find for ourselves
[01:23.07]And we were never being boring
[01:25.70]
[01:26.94]We dressed up and fought, then thought Make amends
[01:30.50]
[01:31.12]And we were never holding back or worried that
[01:35.74]
[01:36.30]Time would come to an end
[01:38.86]
[01:43.23]When I went I left from the station
[01:45.73]
[01:46.48]With a haversack and some trepidation
[01:49.66]
[01:50.90]Someone said If you're not careful
[01:53.71]
[01:54.27]You'll have nothing left and nothing to care for
[01:58.08]In the nineteen-seventies
[02:01.39]
[02:03.07]But I sat back and looking forward
[02:05.76]
[02:06.50]My shoes were high and I had scored
[02:10.00]
[02:10.81]I'd bolted through a closing door
[02:14.30]
[02:14.87]I would never find myself feeling bored
[02:18.99]
[02:21.42]'Cause we were never being boring
[02:24.23]
[02:25.29]We had too much time to find for ourselves
[02:28.66]
[02:29.28]And we were never being boring
[02:31.78]
[02:33.15]We dressed up and fought, then thought Make amends
[02:36.58]
[02:37.21]And we were never holding back or worried that
[02:41.82]
[02:42.39]Time would come to an end
[02:44.82]
[02:45.44]We were always hoping that, looking back
[02:49.75]You could always rely on a friend
[02:52.93]
[03:07.26]Now I sit with different faces
[03:09.32]
[03:10.63]In rented rooms and foreign places
[03:13.75]
[03:14.94]All the people I was kissing
[03:17.87]
[03:18.93]Some are here and some are missing
[03:22.24]In the nineteen-nineties
[03:25.36]
[03:26.92]I never dreamt that I would get to be
[03:30.91]The creature that I always meant to be
[03:34.91]But I thought in spite of dreams
[03:37.96]
[03:38.90]You'd be sitting somewhere here with me
[03:42.96]
[03:45.52]'Cause we were never being boring
[03:47.89]
[03:49.26]We had too much time to find for ourselves
[03:52.69]
[03:53.32]And we were never being boring
[03:55.87]
[03:57.18]We dressed up and fought, then thought Make amends
[04:01.30]And we were never holding back or worried that
[04:05.80]Time would come to an end
[04:08.85]
[04:09.85]We were always hoping that, looking back
[04:13.91]You could always rely on a friend
[04:16.97]
[04:17.59]And we were never being boring
[04:20.15]
[04:21.33]We were never being bored
[04:24.70]
[04:25.51]'Cause we were never being boring
[04:27.95]
[04:29.57]We were never being bored
