Lyrics

Twenty One

[Verse]

I don't think it's going to happen anymore

You took my thoughts from me, now I want nothing more

Did you think you could just take it all away?

I don't think it's happening, this is what I say

[Chorus]

Leave me alone

Leave me alone

Leave me alone

'Cause I found it all

Twenty-one

Twenty-one

[Verse]

So, I don't think it's going to happen anymore

I don't think it's going to happen anymore
