They said the world was a different place

Through the eyes of another face

They said the change would be slow in coming round



They said the sky would be burning bright

And all the angels would begin to fight

Over the reason why there's no seasons

And there'll be no day and night



...But I knew that



I heard the words you were telling me

I heard your lies, your stupidity

But all these things you say to me

You just don't understand



...You see I knew that



And if you look maybe you might find

The words came from another mind

And if you think that you've got it right

Well maybe you should stand and fight



They tried to talk but it was no good

They said you'd leave and I knew you would

I knew the time and I knew the place

But through the eyes of another face



I saw the words that were in your head

I heard the thoughts that remained unsaid

I tried to talk but it's much too late

'Cause I seem mixed up and I can't relate



...But I knew that!



What do you say when love is gone

...I said I knew that
