It seems like forever and a day
If my intentions were misunderstood,
Please be kind, I've done all I should
I wont ask of you, what I would not do
Ooooh I saw the damage in you
My fortunate one, the ending of you
Why would they tell me
To please go then laugh in my face
When all of the reasons they don't ask
All over themselves to give way
Its not a question of whether my heart is true
Streamlined I had to pull through
Look for a new beginning on you
Oooooh I've got a message for you
A better way its what I've got to do
Give what you have, for what you might lose
What would you say if I told you that I'm to blame?
And what would you do if I had to deny, your name?
Where would you go if I told you
I loved you and then walked away? Ooh yeah
Who should I tell if not for the ones
That you could not save, ooh yeah
I told you when I found you
If there was doubts you should be careful
And not afraid
Now they surround you and all
That amounts to is love
That you've crippled
For fortune and fame
If my affections are misunderstood
And you decide
I'm up, to no good, don't ask,
Me to enjoy them, just for you
Ask yourself what I would do
To prostitute myself
To live with fortune and shame oh yeah
When you should have turned
To the hearts of the ones
That you would not save oh now
I told you when I found you
All that amounts to is love
That you've crippled for
Fortune and fame!
