Because that’s what the careless have planned
Unaffordable Estates on historical land

 And suddenly you looked so much older that it knocked me for six and my heart was in bits
So is it your fault or mine that I thought this was real this time

 And you’d smile so sweet when I’d lean in
Don’t say you’ll call me if you never mean it
Standing on the bridge overlooking the river
