Once I was a fly sittin’ on your bedroom wall Once I was a dust you were sweepin’ off the floor Once I was a tear slowly rollin’ down your cheek Once I was a wind singin’ songs just for your ears
Now there’s nothing left to say and the world has turned to grey Something breakin’ deep inside, there’s no chance to save the day
We were shoutin’ loud ‘bout the world around all night We were both like one and flyin’ high in the light We were underage, drunk with love and full of rage All the days were bright, troubles out of sight and away
Now there’s nothing left to say and the world has turned to grey Something breakin’ deep inside, there’s no chance to save the day
Now I understand that was nothin’ but a dream! And the days that pass they are never what they seem Now I’m off the rails and you seem so full of pain Each and every night as I find you go astray
Now there’s nothing left to say and the world has turned to grey Something breakin’ deep inside, there’s no chance to save the day
