|
It's hard to recall how we were at school |
|
Our ambitions and conditions |
|
And our hopes for the future |
|
The teachers we had, our mums and our dads |
|
Their decisions and revisions |
|
And their hopes for the future |
|
Chorus: |
|
But look at me now |
|
I cannot count the cost |
|
Of all the friends i lost |
|
And though my heart did break |
|
Look at me now |
|
I'm on the candle flame |
|
I have a different name |
|
I have your hand to take |
|
But look at me now - and here i am |
|
I used to believe in an idea received |
|
With concision, but derision |
|
Was my natural reaction |
|
You cannot pretend that its all gonna end |
|
In a second to be reckoned |
|
Like a soldier in action |
|
Repeat chorus |
|
Won't you look at me now |
