|
I thought that you knew it all |
|
Well, you've 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 affections wash over me |
|
Dream on my dear |
|
And renounce temporal obligations |
|
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 |
|
We 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 |
|
We 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" |
