What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I came across a cache of old photos
2
And invitations to teenage parties
3
"Dress in white" one said, with quotations
4
From someone's wife, a famous writer
5
In the nineteen-twenties
6
When you're young you find inspiration
7
In anyone who's ever gone
8
And opened up a closing door
9
She said: "We were never feeling bored
10
'Cause we were never being boring
11
We had too much time to find for ourselves
12
And we were never being boring
13
We dressed up and fought, then thought: "Make amends"
14
And we were never holding back or worried that
15
Time would come to an end"
16
When I went I left from the station
17
With a haversack and some trepidation
18
Someone said: "If you're not careful
19
You'll have nothing left and nothing to care for
20
In the nineteen-seventies"
21
But I sat back and looking forward
22
My shoes were high and I had scored
23
I'd bolted through a closing door
24
I would never find myself feeling bored
25
'Cause we were never being boring
26
We had too much time to find for ourselves
27
And we were never being boring
28
We dressed up and fought, then thought: "Make amends"
29
And we were never holding back or worried that
30
Time would come to an end
31
We were always hoping that, looking back
32
You could always rely on a friend
33
Now I sit with different faces
34
In rented rooms and foreign places
35
All the people I was kissing
36
Some are here and some are missing
37
In the nineteen-nineties
38
I never dreamt that I would get to be
39
The creature that I always meant to be
40
But I thought in spite of dreams
41
You'd be sitting somewhere here with me
42
'Cause we were never being boring
43
We had too much time to find for ourselves
44
And we were never being boring
45
We dressed up and fought, then thought: "Make amends"
46
And we were never holding back or worried that
47
Time would come to an end
48
We were always hoping that, looking back
49
You could always rely on a friend
50
And we were never being boring
51
We had too much time to find for ourselves
52
And we were never being boring
53
We dressed up and fought, then thought: "Make amends"
54
And we were never being boring
55
We were never being bored
56
'Cause we were never being boring
57
We were never being bored
