MY WATERLOO
|
|
I came a long long way from home
|
I travelled far just to be here today
|
Across an endless sea of salty tears
|
Behind the divided line of eighteen years
|
|
You gotta walk that road alone
|
You gotta walk that lonely
|
I wear my heart out on my sleeve
|
A sight you surely must have spied by now
|
I admit that I don't even know your name
|
I feel like I could know you all the same
|
|
Are you gonna walk that road with me sometime
|
Or is it gonna be that lonely
|
Are you gonna walk that road with me this time
|
Don't make me be that lonely
|
|
It's still no easy thing to hold your head up high
|
When every time you turn around
|
Somebody kicks your statue down
|
I tried my best to hold my ground
|
I swore I'd never let it be this way
|
But now I broke my sword, dropped my gun
|
Just like some tragic beat Napoleon
|
|
Now I gotta walk that road again
|
Now I gotta walk that lonely
|
Now I gotta walk that road one time
|
Now I gotta be that lonely
|
|
What with no better way to go
|
As long as I'm still kicking that gong around
|
I see this time I met my match in you
|
I know now that you are My Waterloo
|
My Waterloo
