[Pre-Chorus]
When you're talking to yourself and nobody's home
You can fool yourself, you came in this world alone, alone

[Chorus]
So nobody ever told you, baby, how it was gonna be?
So what'll happen to you, baby? Guess we'll have to wait and see

[Verse 1]
Old at heart, but I'm only 28
I'm much too young to let love break my heart
Young at heart, but it's getting much too late
To find ourselves so far apart

[Bridge]
I don't know how you're s'posed to find me lately
And what more could you ask from me?
How could you say that I never needed you?
When you took everything, said, you took everything from me
Hey, yeah

[Verse 2]
Young at heart, and it gets so hard to wait
When no one I know can seem to help me now
Old at heart, but I mustn't hesitate
If I'm to find my own way out
[Pre-Chorus]
Talking to myself and nobody's home
Talking to myself and nobody's home

[Chorus]
So nobody ever told us, baby, how it was gonna be
So what'll happen to us, baby? Guess we'll have to wait and see

[Verse 3]
When I find out all the reasons
Maybe I'll find another way, find another day
With all the changing seasons of my life
Maybe I'll get it right next time
Now that you've been broken down
Got your head out of the clouds, back down on the ground
You don't talk so loud
You don't walk so proud anymore
What for?

[Verse 4]
Well, I jumped into the river
Too many times to make it home, I'm out here on my own
And drifting all alone
If it doesn't show, give it time to read between the lines
'Cause I see the storm is getting closer
And the waves, they get so high
Seems everything we've ever known's here
Why must it drift away and die?
