I turned down time As if I knew the circumstances of her parting The clock had run a little too long For my heart collapsing The door had shut soon there after The ability to turn around and go back in Was now lost, there somewhere, out there Away from here
Anywhere but here I long for
When will I remember how it was when that light was on? When the fire was burning, While the birds were singing I hurt for the birds that sing the blues I am there with them too I'll sing my song out loud for you
Love me strong Or love me not Like the time is just wrong On the hands of the clock
You wonder why: I wonder why You plague my mind, I plague my mind You will be left behind, I was always left behind You wonder why: I wonder why
