The truth is never easy And the game of life is hard It's Devil take the loser When love is hard to find I'm living in a cold world And winter's got my heart I thought it was for ever Right from the start Just when I thought that I'd got things right You turned your back on me Just when I thought that I'd worked things out You said please set me free Turned your back on me It wasn't just a good thing I never would have stayed You brought me to your altar And at your feet I prayed Your beauty I believed in And no shadow crossed my heart I thought it was for ever Right from the start Just when I thought that I'd got things right You turned your back on me Just when I thought that I'd worked things out You said please set me free Turned your back on me Why did I never think the clouds would break The sky would rain a pool of tears Now as the mist comes down this voice cries out in fear Where are you, why are you not here? Just when I thought that I'd got things right You turned your back on me Just when I thought that I'd worked things out You said please set me free Just when I thought that I'd got things right You turned your back on me Just when I thought that I'd worked things out You said please set me free and Turned your back on me Just turned your back on me
