This fever I have is because of you

My body is blazing

The flames alight and lick at my ear

So that I can only hear

Muddled words of you

Through the years



Too many a trusted word was said

My body porous

I savoured every drop of you

Took it all as true

Now I wander my way

Through the years



Oooh, you blinded me with all your light

I wish I could see now

Promises and lies ignite the fire

And I wonder why

I beleived in you



Through the years

Of joy and laughter

Of tears and sadness

Of hopes and hearts



Through the years

Of love and loving

Of hurt and healing

Falling apart



I'm no longer fooled by your disguise

I'm sorry that you are (sorry that you are)

I pity all pretensions of you

Now I start anew

I wish my way

Through the years
