Thanks, No Thanks

lyrics

I headed out to the park
To the little lake past the playground where you always are
I can see you in the dark smoking cigarette after cigarette
Just a little light beneath the stars
I come so far

Thanks but no thanks you know I wanted you for years
But somewhere on the line your face just disappears
No thanks i know it’s not what you want to hear
But somewhere on the line your face just disappears

Lying with you in the grass I’m a kid again just a little scared
Never got this close before the time has come at last
When I’m giving you what you gave to me
All the agony ripped my world apart I’ve come so far

Thanks but no thanks you know I wanted you for years but
But somewhere on the line your face just disappears
No thanks I know it’s not what you want to hear
But somewhere on the line your face just disappears

Right about the time you took my face in your hand
And we made out like you didn’t understand what that would do
What that would do to a boy trying to be a man
I gotta say no ‘cause I finally can I can see I’ve come so far

Thanks, not thanks you know I wanted you for years
But somewhere on the line your face just disappears
No thanks I know it’s not what you want to hear
But somewhere on the line…

Thanks no thanks you know I wanted you for years
But somewhere on the line your face just disappears
No thanks I know it’s not what you want to hear
But somewhere on the line your face just disappears
