Ever since she said our love was dead I've come to dread what lies ahead true, Im going to miss you but lets not skirt the issue--from now on everyting is gonan suck. The future ain't what it used to be all the same things are gonna happen to me but they're gonna turn out differently the future ain't what it used to be. I'll still be bored by the same old stuff still falling short of close enough. I'm still gonna breathe air but you're not gonna be there. Seems like a pointless exercise without you the future aint' what it used to be you altered teh course of history now you're not gonna be together with me the future ain't what it used to be. I've seen this a lot with you now we'll just have to wait and see if this new kid you've got with you honours his big promises where will you be if its too good to be true start all over with a brand new groupie? It'll be awhile before I'll know where I'll be but when I'm tehre then I'm there try to find me I'll get one more wish in but there's a strong suspicion everything will seem a little weak now that the future ain't what it used to be the future aint' what it used to be if you're not gonna be together with me
