lyrics

So you've given up on Fred.
The whole things too much like hard work.
Sometimes it seems like there's a real connection,
And then he’ll do something to prove to you that he's jerk.

You may fear that things will never move along.
And you may fear you’re running out of time.
But these are crazy thoughts when you are young and deluded.
Everything will probably work out fine.

Don’t lose heart, Daphne.
You have all the time you'll ever need.
Don’t lose heart, Daphne.
The world is more beautiful than it might seem.
Don’t lose heart, Daphne.
When you’re so young and free.
You’ll lose your heart, Daphne, some time, just you wait and see.

Don’t lose heart, Daphne.
Why the race to settle down?
Don’t lose heart, Daphne.
There’ll be someone out there for you who’s not gonna fuck you around.
Don’t lose heart, Daphne.
When you are young and free.
You'll lose your heart, Daphne, tomorrow, just you wait and see.

Then fifteen years shoot by, and as crazy at it sounds.
On a magical night out with Carol from marketing and June from accounts.
The DJ plays ‘Native New Yorker’ ... and ‘Zoom’ by Fat Larry's Band ...
And he'll see you across the crowded dance floor ... And he’ll take hold of your hand.

The Chrysanthemums image

The Chrysanthemums England, UK

“The very definition of ‘cult favourites’, the Chrysanthemums are the sort of group who inspire loyalty among a small band of admirers while remaining entirely below the radar of the public at large ... few bands walk the knife's edge between accessibility and impenetrability so well.” [Stewart Mason, AllMusic] ... more
