I never had to look far for my hero. He raised me.
I look and see her...forgetting
it all
as that look floats past
her face
I wish I could jump inside
her head
or that we could both leave
this place
together we've been
together we'll go
love starts fast
and then moves slow...away
forgetting it all
I watch her wander....forgetting
it all
I see unsteadiness in her
eyes
I wait for the hand to
comfort me
but it's no longer wise
together we were
together we are
I just can't let her
get too far....away
forgetting it all
moving it all from her reach
as I thunder on and preach
and preach
tut tutting her not wanting
to see
just what it's taking away
from me
just what it's taking away
from me
I watch her loveless....forgetting
it all
my heart grows hard then
soft again
we'll leave as we've always
been
the two of us as friends
together we'll stay
we'll meet once more
she'll know just what
I'm looking for that day
forgetting it all
moving it all from her reach
as I thunder on and preach
and preach
tut tutting her not wanting
to see
just what it's taking away
from me
just what it's taking away
from me
I look and see her...forgetting
it all
as that look floats past
her face
I wish I could jump inside
her head
or that we could both leave
this place
together we've been
together we'll go
love starts fast
and then moves slow...away
forgetting it all
