We're caught in a trap And I can't walk out until I collect the missing clues It's you, it's you And I worked to make it work And I let myself get hurt And kept sinking deep in you All of my friends keep telling me that "There's nothing to it" But if this is love, it ain't enough And I can't go through with it can't keep it up We're at the party, they're playing the songs And we're right here But we never get to dance We just sit and stare You won't love me when I'm older You always settle for the thrill And while you sit there drinking water "You cruel, you careless man" I'm trying hard to swim I've sorted it out Like they say "you know... lo_ove bu_urns Like most good things do" But then it's you It's you on my window, it's you on hallway It's you on the rearview mirror talking It's you on the radio in all the songs we've been through But you won't love me when I'm older You always settle for the thrill And while you sit there drinking water "You cruel, you careless man" I'm trying hard to swim You won't love me when I'm older But you won't love me when I'm older You always settle for the thrill So go ahead and choke on water "You cruel, you careless man" You will end where I begin
