When It Started Lyrics

Won't decide, but he won't debate
He said thanks my friend
Thought it was too late
Oh why oh why
I don't know.

So you think things move
Pretty fast out here
But just wait my dear
Till you look up there
Oh maybe someday you'll know.

Had his second kid
Was an early night
Gotta be with well dressed
'Cause he hates to fight
Oh loves his job
Takes it home.

Anything they wanted they could have it
Have it.
Didn't even notice
I don't mind it
Mind it.

Won't decide, but he won't debate
He said thanks my friend
Thought that we was dead
Oh why oh why
I don't know.

Think things move
Pretty fast out here
But just wait my dear
Till we get up there
Oh maybe someday they'll know.

Come on tell me does she warm the room when he comes
Or does he just know how to leave when it gets cold

I don't care
I don't care 'cause it's free.

i think its about julians family. i think "loves his job, takes it home" is talking about how his dad (the guy that runs a modeling agency or something) took his "job" home by marrying julian's mother, who was miss denmark... ?

I think it goes:

In the lyrics I'm pretty he says " was an eye for an eye" ...in place of the Question marks. Not sure tho. Anyway this song kicks.

I always thought "was an early night" filled in over the question marks, because of the job & family references surrounding it.
