The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Hey, I'm sorry if I go too fast

Tonight, let's pretend that this will last

I've got a dream you would like to sleep until

Oh, I'm sorry to dwell on the past

I'd better say nothing at all

But I've got this friend who thinks he's in love with you,

And it doesn't sum it up to say he's singing the blues

And whoever learnt to walk in somebody else's shoes?

He's screaming because he's found something to lose

So you're living in Eden where, apples are good

But every narrow miracle, takes place on Earth

Yeah, some militia have arrived and, the percussion has come

and they're pounding out messages loud on the drum.

The rumours have started that we are both young.

Lions in my own garden, exit someone.

That's what I'll shout when you just stay out of reach

And it doesn't sum it up to say I'm singing the blues

And whoever learnt to walk in somebody else's shoes?

I'm screaming because I've found something to lose

And it doesn't sum it up to say I'm singing the blues

And whoever learnt to walk in somebody else's shoes?

I'm screaming because I've found something to lose

And I'm pounding out messages loud on the drum.

The rumours have started that we are both young.

Lions in my own garden, exit someone
