I thought you knew it all,
|
Well you'd seen it ten times before
|
I thought that you had it down,
|
With both your feet on the ground
|
|
I love slow - slow but deep
|
Feigned affection - wash over me
|
|
Dream on my dear,
|
And renounce temporal obligation
|
Dream on my dear,
|
It's a sleep from which you may not awaken
|
|
You build me up then you knock me down,
|
You play the fool while I play the clown,
|
You keep time to the beat - of an old slave drum
|
You raise my hopes,
|
Then you raise the odds
|
You tell me that I dream too much
|
Now I'm serving time - in disillusionment
|
|
I don't believe you anymore
|
I don't believe you
|
|
I thought that I knew it all
|
I'd seen all the signs before
|
I thought that you were the one
|
In darkness my heart was won.
|
|
You build me up then you knock me down,
|
You play the fool while I play the clown,
|
You keep time to the beat - of an old slave drum
|
You raise my hopes,
|
Then you raise the odds
|
You tell me that I dream too much
|
Now I'm serving time - in a domestic graveyard
|
|
I don't believe you anymore
|
I don't believe you
|
|
Never let it be said - i was untrue
|
I never found a home inside of you
|
Never let it be said - I was untrue,
|
I gave you all my time
|
