In my way did I use you, do you think I really abused you
On reflection now it doesn't matter:
How can you say I made you need me more than anyone else
Who can say it right now it's finished over:
It's my act, it's my calling, I explained exactly the falling
Different ways of life can never even:
Be the same when you saw me, could you always take me the
same way As I came and went I tried to remember you:
Still you stay
Tied in your way
Changing times
Watching the signs

How:
Could you see in me what you thought about all you want me to be
Now:
On reflection why should have I changed my ways for you
All around all around

Cry my sympathy's with you but I never lied to you all in all
it seems it's just an experience:
Placed my cards on the table told of everything I was able,

Understanding still not anything different:
Find another to lean on, start again for I should have long
gone, on reflection now it's just an experience.
Soon the pain will have ended, together never intended, as I
come and go I'll try to remember you.

Look back it's not your game, together just in name.

I'll remember the good things how can you forget all the years
that we shared in our way:
Things were changing my life, taking your place in my life and
our time drifting away:
All around all around

Rose in early morning, as the light came through,
Searching in the ocean, did what he should do,
Seeking not adventure, just a way of life,
Sky above turned grey, wind cut like a knife.

This was his last voyage, this was his last time.

Pulling up the anchor, letting go the rope,
Age rules over all things, fate rules over hope.

Then as bow was broken, water soon to rise,
For they would have nothing, Nature's trust unwise,
Through his boat and fortune, not for him that day,
If he went to God, for him they would pray,



As the tempest thundered, as the storm broke free,
Suddenly in darkness, fear there none to see,
Visions in his memory, what was meant to be,
When the storm was over, nothing could be seen,
Life and boat were taken, God knows what it means.

Rose in early morning, as the light came through,
Searching in the ocean, did what he should do,

This was his last voyage, this was his last time.

Pulling up the anchor, letting go the rope,
Age rules over all things, fate rules over hope.

1. Yes it's been hard, going a long time
and we're together even now.
Why do you ask? Surely you know it!
Isn't it clear just when and how.
What can we tell you?
At the beginning had no direction,
any other way.
After the fourth one, realisation,
finding our road, the same as if today.

2. Well we all hear, everyone, no-one,
not to not say, we like a lot.
Want to be seen rock and roll music,
Don't take us something that we're not.
True it looks better, tide looks like turning,
so all in all we feel we are alright.
Yes we had troubles, much more than many,
rather have none and do we think what's right.


What are your plans for the future now?
And can you say who does the writing then?
How did you get -- who gave the name of the band?

3. Now that he's gone, turn off our faces,
wait for the new man to arrive.
Soon the same song, sung for the next one,
saying our piece, though not alive.
What can we tell you?
At the beginning had no direction,
any other way.
After the fourth one, realisation,
finding our road, the same as if today.

Repeat of verse 2.
