Wake up, let me tell you the story of the things that I've done,
Make up, for the time that we've lost,
How could we ever have won?
And I know sometimes I closed my eyes...so blind
Changes, like a seed to a flower
Like a boy to a man,
Cold places,
With the scent of you woman,
On the palm of my hand
And I know sometimes I closed my eyes...so blind
How could I do this to your world?
How could I ever let go?
How could I think you would need me?
I was so blind from the start;
So blind
One day, you were standing right here
And then the next you were gone;
Oh! I can feel it, growing inside
How can I ever go on?
And I know sometimes you closed your eyes...so blind
...you've got to wake up
Make up, for the time that we've lost,
How could we ever have won?
And I know sometimes I closed my eyes...so blind
Changes, like a seed to a flower
Like a boy to a man,
Cold places,
With the scent of you woman,
On the palm of my hand
And I know sometimes I closed my eyes...so blind
How could I do this to your world?
How could I ever let go?
How could I think you would need me?
I was so blind from the start;
So blind
One day, you were standing right here
And then the next you were gone;
Oh! I can feel it, growing inside
How can I ever go on?
And I know sometimes you closed your eyes...so blind
...you've got to wake up
