Lyrics
Will you sit down by my bed,
Clasp my hand and hold my head,
Wipe my brow and tell me
How it's gonna end?
Oceans rise and mountains tumble,
Truth is lies and kingdoms crumble,
Fools and wise are all made humble,
But in my eyes you'll always be the one.
Keep me here where I belong,
Clear my name and right my wrongs.
Every minute sees
Another fall apart.
Days and years go by so fast,
Less ahead than in the past,
When you forget your name it's
Written on my heart.
Oceans rise and mountains tumble,
Truth is lies and kingdoms crumble,
Fools and wise are all made humble,
But in my eyes you'll always be the one.
Money's tight and spending's double.
We're headed for a world of trouble.
All that's left is straw and stubble,
But in my eyes you'll always be the one.
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la
Oceans rise and mountains tumble,
Truth is lies and kingdoms crumble,
Fools and wise are all made humble,
But in my eyes you'll always be the one.
Money's tight and spending's double.
We're headed for a world of trouble.
All that's left is straw and stubble,
But in my eyes you'll always be the one.
In the night the terror doubles,
But we've lived through a world of troubles.
Everybody's bursting bubbles
But in my eyes you'll always be the one.
