Young Pretenders Lyrics

Sat by the riverside, skimming stones

I'd never felt so alone

Thinking of the people I used to know

But it's a long way home

I'll write a letter to those young pretenders

Tell em the grass is still green

I'll write a letter to those young pretenders

Will they write a letter to me?

Sat by the riverside, kicking leaves

Wipe that heart off your sleeve

You can take the high road, you know where it leads

It goes far away from me

Go write a letter to those young pretenders

Tell em the sky is still blue

Go write a letter to those young pretenders

Will they write a letter to you?

Sat by the riverside, passing time

I never saw it go by

Look at all the people we left behind

Without even saying goodbye

We'll write a letter to those young pretenders

You know they look so in love

We'll write a letter to those young pretenders

Will they write a letter to us?
