Sometimes when the darkness loses its hold I tread politely in the cold Racking my brains Pumping my veins And taking the evening train from view But you know I never wanted to Ah, you know I did it just for you And it's so easy to hurt me now And you've forgotten anyhow That certain ideas Have changed through the years I purchased some tears just to see me through But you know I never wanted to Ah, you know I did it just for you One day I noticed the world at my feet Next day comes and it rolls into the street Gathering speed Paying no heed That made me bleed until I was blue But you know I never wanted to Ah, you know I did it just for you
