Lyrics
About a man who thought he’d be king, Picture in the paper on his knees, About a man who thought he’d be yours, Same situation on his knees, He reached too high and fell too far, Now in the mirror he stairs at me Oh, I thought I’d found my life, Oh, I thought I’d found my place, Oh, I thought I’d found myself……in you This is the worst goodbye I’ve ever had to say, Now that you’re gone I’ll never be the same, Although I lied and said I’d be okay, My heart has died; a wall has taken its place…. But I’ll remember you. About a man who tried to be, Everything that he could dream, A man who tried to learn everything, Only to know uncertainty, Oh, I thought I’d found my life, Oh, I thought I’d found my place, Oh, I thought I’d found myself……in you This is the worst goodbye I’ve ever had to say, After today I’ll never be the same, Although I lied and said I’d be okay, My heart has died; a wall has taken its place…. But I’ll remember you. About a man who tried to be, Everything that he could be, A Man who lived despite disease, About a man, a wall, and me….
