Fate just took a wrong turn It would appear that we don't agree And without warning sign I stopped just in time When you ran straight in front of me Well I don't listen to the rumors And I don't care who you have for tea I think you'll find that the thief commits the crime At the end of the book you'll see You tore me right down, you've got a hold on me I can't believe it's true but I believe in me It's been so long, it's been so long Don't ever talk to strangers You never know what they're gonna say And it may be a surprise right in front of your eyes They get up and they walk away So the next time you see me listen 'Cos I've got something I want to say You've got the wrong attitude and you act like a fool And you will pass by within a day You tore me right down, you've got a hold on me I can't believe it's true but I believe in me You tore me right down, you've got a hold on me I can't believe it's true, it's just the end of time You tore me right down, you've got a hold on me I can't believe it's true but I believe in me You tore me right down, you've got a hold on me I can't believe it's true but I believe in me It's been so long, it's been so long It's been so long, it's been so long It's been so long
