You wake up one day and you realise
It's slipping by out of the corner of your eye
Six years is such a long long time
The way you treat your friends is so Sublime

But there's just one thing
In this bad old world
Love

You live your life
Like it's a count down
Watching the time
Mustn't linger behind
Feelings just like orange peelings
Airbrush your walk down the aisle
And you wake up in denial
What's the sell by date of your boy band smile?
One day all of this will slow
Right up until the next great war
Haven't quite been here before
Find the answers in the coloured letters on your fridge
It's hard to fly with your wings clipped

But there's just one thing
In this bad old world
Love
