It seems you think I promised you the moon
|
You must be seeing stars
|
The callous future with a nervousness soon
|
But that's all in the past
|
You got off light
|
Lying there in your own world tonight
|
Turn off the charm, it's too damn bright
|
Hey you got off light
|
The rude rumors you started were partially true
|
You should be very proud
|
How will it be when they catch up with you
|
You're standing face to face with the jeering crowd
|
You got off light
|
Lying there in your own world tonight
|
In the dark with your second sight
|
You got off light
|
You didn't make such a big mistake
|
I should have checked on your credit
|
I pressed your hand in a clammy handshake
|
And I knew that I'd regret it
|
You got off light
|
Lying there in your own world tonight
|
But you're just too civilized to fight
|
You got off light
|
You got off light
|
Lying there in your own world tonight
|
Turn off the charm, it's too damn bright
|
You got off light
|
