What does a ten-year-old know about love?

Please excuse my distrust

Think that the teacher sat me next to you

So I could hear I was beautiful

And could it be a little joke?

Just a lie that you told?

Just a little something funny

That I never heard before?

But the way you held my hand

When my mom left my dad

There was no shame in how you showed it

In front of all your friends

Matty, Matty, Matty

Matty, Matty, Matty

The years have been so rough

I'm far too old for love

Now

Matty, Matty, Matty

Good to see you happy

I'm told it's dangerous

To rewrite what's said and donе

Another decade's comе and gone my friend

What have I learned of love?

Hope that the world has been kind to you

Hope you still say it's beautiful

Did you happen to recall

What the years pulled apart?

Just a moment uncorrupted

We both were innocent

Matty, Matty, Matty

Matty, Matty, Matty

The years have been so rough

I'm far too old for love

Now

Matty, Matty, Matty

Good to see you happy

I'm told it's dangerous

To rewrite what's said and done

Matty, Matty, Matty

Matty, Matty, Matty

Our story's getting old

Cause I've yet to let you go

Now

Matty, Matty, Matty

Good to see you happy

I'm told it's dangerous

To rewrite what's said and done

(Just a little something funny that I never heard before)

Matty, woah Matty

Matty

The years have been so rough

Matty, woah Matty

Matty

I'm far too old for love

(I'm far too old for love)

Matty, woah Matty
