You Used To Drive Me Around

you used to drive me around
when i was big enough to care
well nothing's changing
i'm just saying you were probably there

and everything was still to be
we were gold enough to rise
a supple river, young and silver
with the clouds in our eyes

and i know i'm falling over
and before we go much lower
i've had enough of all your bribery and mimosa
you come clean
i've had enough of all the sadness i'm supposed to
you come clean, i'll come closer

you used to drive me around
when i was small enough to cry
well nothing's changing
no one's waiting for the painting to dry

and if this sounds like goodbye
then you hear the same as me
