莫忘初衷

  

   And you,
   Were right to bide your time and not buy into my misery
   Well the good things are never free
   Do the colours of the rainbow look the same to everyone?
   
   And I,
   Was rushing round in circles for a reason to believe
   Wipe the slime from off your sleeve
   You could follow me for weeks
   And I'm not going anywhere
   Sometimes it's hard to love someone
   Till the day that they are gone

   And I
   Just had a dream the other night
   I was married to the Queen
   And Madonna lived next door
   I think she took a shine to me
   And the kids were all grown up
   But I had to turn her down
   'Cos I was still in love with you

   I'm turning Madonna down
   I'm calling it my best move
   I'll get her tickets to what she needs

   I remember doing nothing on the night Sinatra died
   And the night Jeff Buckley died
   And the night Kurt Cobain died
   And the night John Lennon died
   I remember I stayed up to watch the news with everyone
   And that was a lot of nights
   And that was a lot of lives
   Who lost the tickets to what they need?

   And I
   Was busy finding answers while you just got on with real life
   Always hoped you'd be my wife
   But I never found the time
   For the question to arrive
   I just disguised it in a song

   And songs are never quite the answer
   Just a soundtrack to a life
   That is over all too soon
   Helps to turn the days to night
   While I was wrong and you were right

   And this was a lesson learned
   I'm happy to be your fool
   And get you tickets to what you need

   I'm turning the lights down low
   I'm ready to make my move
   I'll get you tickets to what you need
