Never heard it straight from you
I heard you done me wrong
Why am i the last to find out just what's going on?
Don't wanna know all your secrets
Just tell me one thing true
Just tell me what i meant
And what i mean to you
And now i just walk away
And leave you standin' there
It's not that i don't love you
And it's not that i don't care
And now i look over the rooftops
Of the houses in my new town
A hundred years to build up
And seconds to fall down
Fall down
Tell me the road of my life
Paved with bricks of gold
A hundred miles of walking
And hundred miles to go
Everything looks like a nail
With a hammer in your hand
Built this stupid crooked house
Upon the shifting sand
And now i just walk away
And leave you standing there
It's not that i don't love you
And it's not that i don't care
And now i look over the rooftops
Of the houses in my new town
A hundred years to build up
And seconds to fall down
Fall down
