[Lyrics by Geoff Tate]

|
She said, "Baby, where you been?
|
Why'd you have to leave me?
|
I'm on the other side... just looking in."
|
I've been so high; I climbed to the mountaintop,
|
Looked at myself and...
|
|
I'd tell you anything you want to hear.
|
And I'd desert you when I'm through.
|
I'd say anything because true love
|
Don't mean a thing to a man who's not a man, but a fool.
|
|
Look at me!
|
You're a model of efficiency.
|
I'm always doing what he tells me.
|
How can you change it now?
|
|
I'm always looking for it down deep inside,
|
I thought that this would change my life.
|
Have you found out?
|
I remember more...
|
Can you change?
|
I can change.
|
|
For years he must have cried a river of tears.
|
In his dreams he saw himself...
|
A dying man drawing figures, arrows in the sand.
|
Mmm, I don't think he understands.
|
Never thought that it would last forever.
|
One glance back... there's nothing much to say.
|
He watched as it all began spinning further and further from the truth.
|
|
And nothing really matters, when your heart doesn't lead the way.
