Lyrics:
Boy, you are a bully
Through the grass and the river you chase
You were cruel, you were so mean
Laughing right in my face
All the while you had my back, my best friend
I could still feel that smile on my face
27 was a good year, the best
At the back of the bar watching me dance in a dress
Remember that night in Paris, all those candles you lit
I could never forget
You and all the alcohol
Sleeping on the street, sleeping on a train
Looking like a crook with a cane
You'd come back home with a twist of your tongue
And a devilish smile on your face
But when you got sick
You were through with fun and games
And now that the times have all changed
I can't find you, I can't see your face
I can't pretend I have a wish
That would put you back into place
Nothing could be done
With this young, wild son
Standing in the street with the hospital sheet
On the run from the police
That dumb girl on your arm
And that look on your face
And all those crazy things you said to me
Looking glass mirror
Looking past our fear
I used to find you running away
With a smile on your face
I used to find you running away
With a smile on my face
Everything we have to go through
With a smile on our face
Everything we now know
With a smile on our face
There must just be something that keeps it away
Must be something special that keeps you away
