Lyrics
Upside down
Girl my world is upside down
Since I woke up with this frown
My head is getting bold
This means that I am getting old
All dreams that are gone
All this work I haven't done
I didn`t not become the man
That I hoped to be back then
Chorus:
But maybe you can love me
Despite of who I am
Remember the days we dreamed
When time was on our side it seemed
My old heroes all died
I toss and turn at night
Wondering when my turn will come
And people say: "hey he`s done!
I didn't fight great wars
Nor did I open important doors
Only care for meaning and truth
Only a privilege of youth?
Chorus:
But maybe you can love me
Despite of who I am
Remember the days we dreamed
When time was on our side it seemed
Bridge:
Look behind my walls
And see the man that calls
My emptiness inside
I can no longer hide
Chorus:
But maybe you can love me
Despite of who I am
Remember the days we dreamed
When time was on our side it seemed
