The things you said were not untrue The things you want were okay too The things you kept the things you threw away The things you thought I never knew, they’d stay The love I showed was partly cold The things I said were mostly true The things you did were partly known The dreams I had will go untold They say what fate deals, time heals all wounds Well tell that to my heart that bleeds 'Cause if the hands of fate and time were truly by my side I could look at you today without crying The thing I was to you was gone The thing you were to me was blue The thing I wanted to unfold in turn Make paper tigers into gold or burn The things we said we’d never say If things get tough we’ll sell them on eBay
