| Didn’t I tell you the way back home
|
| Didn’t I warn you to stay on the road
|
| Didn’t I help you to understand
|
| That life is just time passing thru your hands
|
| There’s no easy path thru it
|
| The truth is there is no truth to it
|
| Moving thru the spotlight
|
| Don’t let the paparazzi world define you
|
| Now you’ve made your mark on it
|
| I know you believed the hope of it
|
| You know nobody wins
|
| It’s the way you lose that keeps it hopeful
|
| Didn’t I tell you I will be there
|
| Didn’t I show you
|
| I really care
|
| You spoke of your plans for it
|
| You talked all about your destiny
|
| I could see the rain clouds
|
| But I couldn’t stop the rain from falling
|
| You tried to go way beyond it
|
| You’d already made the most of it
|
| Nothing wrong with dreaming
|
| Just don’t fool yourself about the meaning
|
| Didn’t I tell you the way back home
|
| Didn’t I warn you to stay on the road
|
| Didn’t I help you to understand
|
| That life is just time passing thru your plans
|
| You say that you can’t let go of it
|
| That your life only works because of it
|
| You’re afraid that you can’t hold on to it
|
| But your heart doesn’t seem so sold on it
|
| Why not try to believe the heart of it
|
| Why not try to perceive the art in it
|
| Why not let me be more a part of it
|
| Didn’t I tell you that I’d be there
|
| Didn’t I show you that I really care
|
| Didn’t I tell you the way back home
|
| Didn’t I warn you to stay on the road
|
| Didn’t I help you to understand
|
| That life is just time passing thru your hands |
