[Verse 1]

For twenty five seconds

We were back then and

You were twenty six and

I was twenty seven

You said

“There’s nothing more depressing

Than other peoples weddings

Or birthdays or christenings”

I’d already stopped listening

I asked you

If I knew you

You said we’d met like a million times

I had no doubt

Then we walked out

It was warm out

[Chorus]

We were headed to the park

Dressing for the rain

You said it wouldn’t last

Said nothing stays the same

Daughters of lonely sons

Yeah you’re not the only one

And sons of lonely girls

Who told them they’d change the world

[Verse 2]

Maybe they should never have sat us together

We were bad news

In good weather

I walked you to the station

And showed you constellations

Orion was glistening

You’d already stopped listening

We stayed up

’Til we broke down

What else were we gonna do?

And England

In the sunshine

Is a landmine

[Chorus]

We were headed to the park

Dressing for the rain

You said it wouldn’t last

Said nothing stays the same

Daughters of lonely sons

Yeah you’re not the only one

And sons of lonely girls

Who told them they’d change the world

[Breakdown]

[Bridge]

Headed to the park

Dressing for the rain

You said it wouldn’t last

They said it wouldn’t last

Said nothing stays the same

[Chorus]

We were headed to the park

Dressing for the rain

You said it wouldn’t last

Said nothing stays the same

Daughters of lonely sons

Yeah you’re not the only one

And sons of lonely girls

Who told them they’d change the world
