Lyrics
Quarter Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I want to go back in time
We will share a knowing glance
He'll say "not this one"
This time I'll listen
Like I could read your mind
Like I saw it in advance
We've already done that dance
And it ends badly
In this quarter life or less
There are things that I regret
And if I could prevent them
I would
You bet
So when I go back
I'll go to Jules's place
Invisible girl will paint her face
Preparing for the war
But I'll be brave, this time
I'll be a non-combatant
Now that I'm sure
That it takes a whole lot more
Courage to have compassion
Without passion
And if I still feel an attraction
I'll tell you exactly what will happen
And then you will never fall for me
And you and I will hardly ever speak
Which is how we are now anyway
Comic or ironic, it's a shame
Only having been to where it leads
Can I be the friend you need
In this quarter life and change
There are things I'd rearrange
But if I had to forget them
I'd say forget it
Forget it
Just forget it
