[Verse 1] |
|
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the sacred wunderkind |
|
You took me behind a disused railway line |
|
And said, "I know a place where we can go |
|
Where we are not known" |
|
And then you gave me something that I won't forget too soon |
|
[Pre-Chorus] |
|
But I can't believe that you'd ever care |
|
And this is why you will never care |
|
[Chorus] |
|
But these things take time |
|
And I know that I'm |
|
The most inept that ever stepped |
|
[Verse 2] |
|
I'm spellbound, but a woman divides |
|
And the hills are alive with celibate cries |
|
But you know where you came from |
|
You know where you're going |
|
And you know where you belong |
|
You said I was ill and you were not wrong |
|
[Pre-Chorus] |
|
But I can't believe that you'd ever care |
|
And so you never care |
|
[Chorus] |
|
But these things take time |
|
And I know that I'm |
|
The most inept that ever stepped |
|
[Verse 3] |
|
Oh, the alcoholic afternoons |
|
When we sat in your rooms |
|
They meant more to me than any |
|
Than any living thing on earth |
|
It had more worth than any |
|
Living thing on earth, on earth, on earth |
|
Oh, oh |
|
[Outro] |
|
Vivid and in your prime |
|
You will leave me behind |
|
You will leave me behind |
