It's a tragedy in waiting And there's something on my mind It's hard enough for me to carry on Well it's a tragedy in waiting And there's something on my mind It's hard enough for me to carry on Well call me pleasure if you like But believe me when I say I will learn to change it all It's not like I'm asking for the sky to open up I don't believe that's possible just yet Well it's a tragedy in waiting And there's something on my mind It's hard enough for me to carry on Have you ever left your suitcase Open long after you land Cause you're scared to find a way To love them close A destiny may wait and there's present in hand But they forgot to tell me how to end this show Could it be that I'm the one Who holds my hand behind my back Well I know that this is possible by now But destiny may take me so far from where I am But it's hard enough for me to hold it down You want me so badly to give right into you But I'm afraid that cannot be the case today You dream of land and marriage, just me and you Oh my mind won't you leave me be Won't you just leave me for me Love is the only way out of this It's the only way i can get back into it Be an afternoon or more Beyond the breaking of the day There is always something waiting there for me I've asked again and then again Just to glimpse into my day But someone's trying to make it hard on me Could it be that I'm the one Who tied my hand behind my back Well I know that this is possible right now It's a tragedy in waiting When there's something plagueing the mind And it's hard enough for love to hold me down Well, I don't believe it Well, I can't believe it Well, I don't believe it I'll never believe it No, so I'm gone You want me so badly to give right into you Well I'm afraid that cannot be the case today So you dream of land and marriage, just me and you Oh my mind won't you just leave me be Won't you just leave me for me For me , for me , for me
