You know it's never gonna last a lifetime
|
So I say you're better off if you end it now
|
Then you take a look around the properties
|
There's a lot to see, let it surround you now
|
'cause if you are sure you are ridiculous
|
One can never be not even the best of us
|
|
I know, 'cause I've been there
|
|
You disappoint yourself if you stay like that
|
You'll grow bitter, I can see it happening
|
And then you'll wish you'd done as I said
|
But it's too late, you're already stuck
|
and you walk around looking for reasons to make it worthwhile
|
but you never find them
|
|
I know, 'cause I've been there
|
|
But if you'd seen her
|
The first time that we met
|
She walked up to me, she walked up to me
|
I never would have guessed, I would come to depend on her
|
I would come to depend on her
|
|
As she approached me, talked to me, spoke my name
|
she spoke my name, she spoke my name
|
I never would have guessed, I would come to depend on her
|
I would come to depend on her
|
|
But as it happens
|
If I picture me growing old without her
|
without her
|
That I couldn't bear, I see her by my side
|
I see her by my side
|
|
I need to focus on the things that I do best
|
and work on that, and work on that
|
Now I'm working this affair
|
I won't finish 'til I'm done, I won't finish 'til I'm done
|
|
Up until now, I've been only wasting time
|
Wasting time, I'm wasting time
|
That's not what I need, the only time I need
|
Is the time I've spent on this here
|
|
And if you say
|
that I'm held in a trap
|
Then I shout from the bottom
|
and the top of me
|
that is where I wanna be
|
|
And if you say
|
so entrapments your trip
|
Then I shout from the bottom
|
and the top of me
|
if that's how you see it so be it
|
|
And if you say
|
that I'm held in a trap
|
Then I shout from the bottom
|
and the top of me
|
that is where I wanna be
|
|
So if you say
|
that entrapments your trip
|
Then I shout from the bottom
|
and the top of me
|
if that's how you see it, so be it.
