That feeling,
That you so seldom get,
When your lungs swell,
And your heart can’t even cope,
And you’re flying over it,
And the vastness, it amazes you,
And you take a deep breath,
And you swell up with pride,
That this world belongs to you and me,
This world belongs to us.
Though your hands a feeling empty,
And you hunger for so much,
And kismet disappoints you,
And you’re longing for the touch,
Of the one who truly loves you,
You know he said he’d die for you,
And the outlook’s disappointing,
And the outlook’s disappointing.
I wasn’t sober, I was drunk and so were you,
We both said some things that we never meant to,
My eyes were open but my mind was truly closed,
Can we forget those things that that night we disclosed?
You never knew me,
Yet you blew me away.
It was too late to be taken in,
It was too late to be taken in,
Love’s a game, and life’s a sin,
It was too late to be taken in.
It takes more than just writing letters,
Paper protests go unheard,
And music can be so persuasive,
And a march can be misconstrued,
And the media, they love that,
It’s beyond their bread and butter,
That this world belongs to you and me,
This world belongs to us.
I’ve sometimes denied myself things I wish I’d done,
Turned down the prize I know I should have won,
But you can’t spend your life thinking of what might have been,
Be grateful for all those who encroached upon your scene.
You never knew me,
Yet you blew me away.
It was too late to be taken in,
It was too late to be taken in,
Love’s a game, and life’s a sin,
It was too late to be taken in.
Though your hands a feeling empty,
And you hunger for so much,
And kismet disappoints you,
And you’re longing for the touch,
Of the one who truly loves you,
You know he said he’d die for you,
And the outlook’s disappointing,
And the outlook’s disappointing.
I wasn’t sober, I was drunk and so were you,
We both said some things that we never meant to,
My eyes were open but my mind was truly closed,
Can we forget those things that that night we disclosed?
You never knew me,
Yet you blew me away.
It was too late to be taken in,
It was too late to be taken in,
Love’s a game, and life’s a sin,
It was too late to be taken in.
Love’s a game, and life’s a sin,
It was too late to be taken in.
Love’s a game, and life’s a sin,
It was too late to be taken in.
It was too late to be taken in.
It was too late to be taken in.
It was too late to be taken in.
It was too late to be taken in.
It was too late to be taken in.
It was too late to be taken in.
It was too late to be taken in.
