if i ever was, then now i`m less than sure

what i was waiting for

if i could find the strenght to walk

me i`m drinking the sea

she will send me to sleep

surely there must be an easy way

and i`ll say it again will the nevers end

do i have to forgive to forget

i wrote a letter only yesterday

i can not recall what i wanted to say

i saw a chance, i let it pass me by

this is the shallow age, my friend

i say never again will the nevers end

this is not what i had meant to say

so i`m drinking the sea, trying to pick up the pieces

and say it never again

if i ever was then now i`m less than sure

and this is the shallow age, my friend
