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 was porous

I savoured every drop of you

Took me it all as true

Now I wonder my way

Through the years

Through the years



Ooh you blinded me with all your light

I wish I could see now

Promises and lies ignite the fire

And I wonder why

I believed in you

Through the years

Through the years



Through the years of joy and laughter

Of tears and sadness

Of hopes and heart

Through the years of love and loving

Of hurt and healing

Falling apart

I believed in you



And I wonder wonder why

I'm no longer fooled by your disguise

I'm sorry that you are

I pity all the pretensions of you

And now I start anew

I wish my way

Through the years
