Now it's years since your body went flat, and even memories of that
Are all thick and dull, all gravel and glass
But who needs them now, displaced they're easily more safe
The worst of it now, I can't remember your face

Return, return, return, return

For a while, with the vertigo cured
We were alive, we were pure
The void took the shape of all that you were
But years take their toll
And things get bent into shape
Antiseptic and tired, I can't remember your face

Return, return, return, return

You were supposed to grow old
You were supposed to grow old
Reckless, unfrightened and old
You were supposed to grow old
You were supposed to grow old
You were supposed to grow old
You were supposed to grow old

Return, return, return, return
You were supposed to return
You were supposed to return
