The Modern Age (ep Version) Lyrics - The Modern Age [ep] - Strokes

Up on a hill, here's where we begin 

This little story, a long time ago 

Stop to pretend, stop pretending 

It seems this game is simply never-ending 

Oh in the sun shine having fun, it's in my blood 

I just can't help it 

Don't want you here right now, let me go 

Let me go go go go go go go go 

Leaving just in time 

Stay there for a while 

Rolling in the ocean 

Trying to catch her eye 

Work hard and say it's easy 

Do it just to please me 

Tomorrow will be different 

So I'll pretend I'm leaving 

I feel so different now, we trained at AVA 

I wish you hadn't stayed 

My visions clearer now 

But I'm unafraid 

Flyin' over seas, no time to feel the breeze 

I took too many varieties 

Oh in the sun shine having fun, it's in my blood 

I just can't help it 

Don't want you here right now, let me go 

Darling let me go go go go go go go go 

Leaving just in time 

Stay there for a while 

Rolling in the ocean 

Trying to catch her eye 

Work hard and say it's easy 

Do it just to please me 

Tomorrow will be different 

So this is why I'm leaving
