Lyrics
I was living for the short term
I was living with a focus on short-term goals and pleasures.
Living in the wrong world
I existed in a world that was not suitable or right for me.
Living with all kinds of ups and downs
My life had various challenges and fluctuations.
Couldn't seem to find the right words
I couldn't express myself correctly or find the appropriate words.
Or accept the right terms
I struggled to accept the correct conditions or terms.
Couldn't find a way to find you out
I couldn't discover a way to understand or connect with you.
You're always living in the real world
You consistently live in reality.
Coz you're such a real girl
Because you are authentic, genuine, and true to yourself.
And you found a way to find me out
You found a way to understand or discover me.
There wasn't much to make you feel good
There wasn't much to uplift or please you.
Not the way that he could
Not in the way that someone else could.
But you found a way to do without
But you found a way to cope or manage without it.
And if this is what you paid for can you get your money back?
If this is not what you expected or paid for, can you request a refund?
This short term long investment won't return the things you lack
This investment in short-term gains won't fulfill the things you lack.
He was fighting for a lost cause long before you picked him up
He was already engaged in a futile effort long before you became involved.
Is it even worth the admin fee to watch him come unstuck
Is it even worth the cost to witness his inevitable failure?
Come back, come back tomorrow
Come back, return at a later time.
And we'll beg steal, beg steal and borrow
We will do whatever it takes to achieve our goals.
For the ideas, ideas you follow
Follow the ideas or principles that guide you.
If you come back, come back tomorrow
If you return, come back tomorrow.
And when it comes together it's so good to have you back
When everything falls into place, it's great to have you back.
These dreams were made forever so they have to stay intact
These dreams were made to last forever, so they must remain intact.
For all that went before you as they came to wish you luck
For all the experiences that preceded you, as they wished you well.
He was fighting for a lost cause long before you picked him up
He was already committed to a hopeless cause before you got involved.
