Seems like forever and a day
|
If my intentions are misunderstood
|
Please be kind, I've done all I should
|
I won't ask of you what I would not do
|
Oh, I saw the damage in you
|
My fortunate one, the envy of youth
|
|
Why would they tell me to please those that laugh in my face?
|
When all of the reasons they've taught us fall over themselves to give way
|
|
It's not a question whether my heart is true
|
Streamlined, I had to pull through
|
Look for a new beginning on you
|
Oh, I got a message for you
|
Up and away, it's what I gotta do
|
Forgive what you have, for what you might lose
|
|
What would you say if I told you that I'm to blame?
|
And what would you do if I had to deny your name?
|
Where would you go if I told you I love you and then walked away?
|
And who should I turn to, if not for the ones that you could not save
|
|
I told you when I found you, if there were doubts
|
You should be careful and unafraid
|
Now they surround you and all that amounts to
|
Is love that you fed by perversion and pain
|
|
So if my affections are misunderstood
|
And you decide I'm up to no good
|
Don't ask me to enjoy them just for you
|
|
Ask yourself
|
Why I would choose to prostitute myself
|
To live with fortune and shame, oh yeah
|
When you should have turned to the hearts of the ones that you would not save
|
|
I told you when I found you, all that amounts to
|
Is love that you fed by perversion and pain
|
