lyrics

Young in love there was nobody else
We were closer than I was to myself
We used to say, “I love you to death”
Little did we know

Time revealed a different side of you
I did my best to disavow the clues
From pillow talk and sleepless nights
To primal scream and endless fights

Rainbows and shooting stars
Fade away so fast
Leaving only empty sky
And memories in a photograph

I never said I was an innocent man
I’ve got the motive and I have a plan
Had all the misery that I can stand
I’m leaving the scene of the cryin’

We both have our own point of view
It’s a real life who done who
A cold case that’s too hard to prove
We may never know

Summer rain and waterfalls
Run away so fast
Leaving just a thin blue stream
And desert sand through an hourglass

I never said I was an innocent man
I’ve got the motive and I have a plan
Had all the misery that I can stand
I’m leaving the scene of the cryin’

Something robbed us of our joy, like a thief in the night
No reward can bring it back. No amends can make it right
I will always love you but try as I might
I can’t turn this pain around. Looks like the deal is going down

I never said I was an innocent man
I’ve got the motive and I have a plan
Had all the misery that I can stand
I’m leaving the scene of the cryin’
