lyrics

You say you're calling yourself better now
I've been away from you too long
I never saw you to be so wrong
I had seen your eyes before the dawn of this

You're picking all my simple fancies out
And it's a waste of time to fight
I've got a new way out of my life
If I give my life to god I'll never die
You knew that far too long for hope
To give you none for you to cope

You were by my side when I began to wake
You were by my side
You were just in time to see me fall asleep
You were just in time
