Album: Lost & Gone Forever
Year: 1999
Woke up today
To everything gray
And all that I saw
Just kept goin' on and on
Sweep all the pieces under the bed
Close all the curtains and cover my head
So what you wish for won't come true
You aren't surprised love, are you?
If this serenade
(Repeat after me, a little closer)
Is not what you want
(Do what I say, caught up in a lie)
It just how it is
(It won't change a thing, got a little colder)
It keeps going on and on
Come out, come out wherever you are
Would you do it all over right from the start?
So what you wish for won't come true
You aren't surprised love, are you?
So what you wish for won't come true
You aren't surprised love, are you?
Once had this dream
Crashed down in Oz
Not black and white
But where the colors are
I never dreamed that I would let her go
And I will get
What I deserve
Leave all the secrets under the bed
Open the curtains, forget what I said
So what you wished for could come true
You aren't surprised love, are you?
So what you wished for could come true
You aren't surprised love, are you?
