I once believed, somewhere behind it all
that I could give myself to something great.
but somehow all I managed was to fall.

and now I must wonder, what shall befall
for you, you were there, and you were my fate,
I once believed, somewhere behind it all.

I swore to myself that I would stand tall,
that I would never shatter under this weight,
but somehow all I managed was to fall.

And now you've helped me build my greatest wall,
I could hide here inside, where I'll be safe,
I once believed, somewhere behind it all.

and to me my gypsy soul may now call,
and the world I may circumnavigate
but somehow all I managed was to fall.

for now I shall wander, down lifes grand hall
there must be happiness, along this strait
I once believed, somewhere behind it all.
But somehow all I managed was to fall
