(n.b. this is the version from the amsterdam lp. the lyrics of other versions differ slightly.) |
|
Two hours twenty minutes |
|
To one, five past |
|
Now it's laying somewhere out there in the ground |
|
And I've lost you |
|
I was cheated |
|
It was something belonged only to me |
|
And now it's gone through my own stupidity |
|
And I lost you |
|
I was cheated |
|
Two whole years spent earning your love |
|
Now it's hanging around in the clouds |
|
Well I've lost you |
|
I was cheated |
|
I'm cheated by my own vanity |
|
Whispering rumours, bullying me |
|
Well I spent it |
|
It wasn't worth it |
|
And for those who are not so beautiful as her |
|
Not giving excuses, but oh... |
|
When it's originally tossed away |
|
It can easily be reclaimed by her |
|
By her |
|
All those years spent building myself up |
|
Trying to stop my staring |
|
And start taking two steps instead of one |
|
But they're so gone now |
|
Chorus |
