Lyrics Cowboy Junkies – See You Around

Well, I’m sorry for my lack of communication
But as I’m staring out this fifth floor window
It seems like the least amount of communication is better

Oh well, what am I supposed to say?

And I ain’t got time for the niceties
Or rather, I was never, never fond of the niceties

Well, I will see you around, around, around
I will see you around
I will see you around, yeah, yeah
I will see you around

Well, I must admit I’m flattered
By your consecration
It’s mind-numbing, spine-chilling
But never-the-less heartwarming gesture

But as you make your advances so clumsily
I’ll save us both the hassle and leave
Hang out all night
In the familiar fluorescent light of Dunkin’ Donuts

‘Cause I ain’t got time for the niceties
Or rather I was never, never fond of the niceties

I will see you around, yeah, yeah
I will see you around
I will see you around
I’ll see you around

Well, how are you with issues?
Lately you’ve been a half-assed activist
You’ve been seen sashaying around the picket line
Wearing scarcely any sign

Oh, but I was vocal in love and strife
And the politics of your all important life
Well, I’m sorry
But your routine is coming off a bit ragged

And I ain’t got time for the niceties
Rather I was never, never fond of the niceties

I will see you around, yeah
I will see you around
I’ll see you around
I will see you around

Yeah, I will see you around
Um, I’ll see you around, yeah
I will see you around, round
I’ll see you around
I will see you around
