Cover art for Chocolates & Cigarettes lyrics by Angus and Julia Stone

just some possibilities for this song....

the first part of the song describes how the person is tempted to rekindle a relationship, but when she says "this is getting old" its an internal struggle of whether or not its the right thing to do or will make a difference.

to young to fail to scared to sail away- to young to be in serious relationship with someone and have plenty of time to find another but to scared to sail away meaning to scared to let go one of these days....she will get the courage to let the love go and move on
