Lyrics

The way this narrative's unfolding I've got in way above my head Sense I'm about to be held to account for Some things I never did, some words I never said I can tell you're keen to hold my attention Though my concentration's starting to fade As you set out your stall and say that you're ready To wait for the pay-out on promises I never made Don't know where this is going I don't know if we're speeding up or slowing down You haven't read the questions I haven't got the answers now It looks as though we've run aground Better bring it on, get the motor running; Surely we don't belong, but let's pretend anyway So the story's gone wrong no-one saw it coming - Moving along will we be moving away To another life where we might not be strangers? Might be husband and wife, might find our future assured? Time and tide that's enticed, none of that could change us Oh but you don't think twice, just make up what's gone before I don't know where that came from A strange imagination's got A stranglehold on you You talk as if you know me: In reality you haven't got The faintest clue And now this narrative's exploding Through a merry dance your fantasies have sped Still you say my words are in your heart forever: "I'll always love you...." That wasn't what I said
