Time, it's flown by But your ageing face is burnt in my mind Your smile, misguiding voice Those fairytales life's been to kind Oh, I understand what you've been through And I have all the time I'm the only one to pity you I walked in to this blind More fool me I stumbled in with my eyes closed More fool you It took years to see through you How well you have done Be proud, my loyal friend Those stepping stones They'll soak your lying feet But I won't watch you drown Oh, I understand what you've been through And now I have no time I'm the only one to pity you You pulled the wood over my eyes More fool me I stumbled in with my eyes closed More fool you It took years to see through you
