Lyrics

Today I was gonna conquer the world Go on ahead and take a stand Today I saw an old friend a dyin' And as he lay there no one led a hand I'm gonna call you up You'll forsake the one you love Though I've left you many times before - You are just a sinner I was the one who understands You were my one and only man I was lost, now I'm the winner You stand there waitin' by the shore But I don't come that way no more Because you are just a sinner Today I was gonna hold out my hand Reach up for that light and let it shine Today I have no light to guide me Feelin' like the one they left behind So I called you up You left your love and took me away Though I've left you many times before- You are just a sinner I am the only one, you see You were the only one for me I was lost, now I'm the winner You'll keep the candle burning bright But I won't be home tonight Because you are just a sinner Today I was gonna conquer the world Go on ahead and make a stand Today I saw an old friend a dyin' And as he lay there, no one lent a hand
