Missing Beats (Of a Generation) - The Charlatans

When you were young you were

The first to crash and burn

That’s an illusion for the world to see

Now We don’t look the same

Maybe it’s D.N.A

I can’t change you and you, you can’t change me

Missing beats of a generation

Through disappointments and frustrations

Missing beats of a generation

Through disappointments and frustrations

When you were just sixteen

You were the one for me

I can’t recall us getting too much sleep

Now we are not the same

Maybe it’s D.N.A

I can’t change you and you, you can’t change me

Missing beats of a generation

Through disappointments and frustrations

Missing beats of a generation

The nature of our expectations

When you were young you were

The first to crash and burn

That’s an illusion for the world to see

Missing beats of a generation

Through disappointments and frustrations

Missing beats of a generation

The nature of our expectations

Missing beats of a generation

Through disappointments and frustrations

Missing beats of a generation

The nature of our expectations

On and on, and on, and on

The more we know the less we glow

I never thought you would look so old

On and on, and on, and on

The more we know the less you go

I never thought you would look so old
