“You said you were gonna grow up, then you were gonna come find me,” she repeats in the chorus, later saying that the other person was 25 years old when they first met — which is how old Matty was in 2014.
“I won’t confess that I waited, but I let the lamp burn / As the men masqueraded, I hoped you’d return / With your feet on the ground, tell me all that you’d learned / ‘Cause love’s never lost when perspective is earned,” she sings. “And you said you’d come and get me, but you were 25 / And the shelf life of those fantasies has expired / Lost to the Lost Boys chapter of your life.”
