The world was a carpet laid before me The buds were bursting and the air smelled sweet and strange It seemed about a hundred years ago Mary and I, we were sitting upon a cake Gazing at some dragon in the sky Such tender days, we had none secreted away It seemed about a hundred years ago Now all my friends is wearing worried smiles Dreaming out a thing of what shame was Don't you think sometimes wise not to grow up? We were walking through the wood the other day Can't you see the furrows in my forehead? Such tender days, we had none secreted away It seemed about a hundred years ago Now if you see me drinking bad red wine Tell me about this man that you love Don't you think sometimes wise not to grow up? We were walking through the wood the other day Can't you see the furrows in my forehead? Don't you think sometimes wise not to grow up? We're gonna kiss and say goodbye, oh yeah We're gonna kiss and say goodbye, oh yeah We're gonna kiss and say goodbye, oh yeah We're gonna kiss and say goodbye, oh yeah Call me lazybones, ain't got no time to waste away Lazybones, ain't got no time to waste away Don't you think, don't you think It's just about time to hide away, yeah, yeah Don't you think, don't you think It's just about time to hide away, yeah, yeah Don't you think, don't you think It's just about time to hide away, yeah, yeah Don't you think, don't you think It's just about time to hide away, yeah, yeah Don't you think, don't you think It's just about time to hide away, yeah, yeah Don't you think, don't you think It's just about time to hide away, yeah, yeah Don't you think, don't you think It's just about time to hide away, yeah, yeah Don't you think, don't you think It's just about time to hide away, yeah, yeah
