Your Younger Man Lyrics - The World / Inferno Friendship Society

I remember we were standing on a street in the rain 

Downtown where none of us will be able to afford to live again 

You were looking for some cigarettes in your purse and you cursed 

And I fell in love to the sound of that obscene and lovely word 

You were older, you were vicious, I was younger and not suspicious 

That I was being fucked around 

I was I was I won't I don't want to talk about this now 

Until you see my face ten years don't seem like a long time 

But I'm older now than you were then when I was your younger man 

I remember we were running from who you left before me 

I remember being dumb and drunk and happy 

I remember you squinting as the smoke got in your eyes 

And being ID'd following you into bars while you stalked other guys 

Until you see my face ten years don't seem like a long time 

But I'm older now than you were then when I, when I . . . 

Everyone said it would end badly, it took a while but it did 

And I hung my head sadly and got used to it 

I'll see you at some funeral you know I've got a few in mind 

We'll be fighting but I'll be smiling because, remember that time 

I saw your face and thought ten years ain't such a long time 

Oh I'm older now than you were then when I 

When I saw your face and thought ten years ain't such a long time 

But I'm older now than you were then when I was your younger man
