Didn't I tell you the way back home Didn't I warn you to stay on the road Didn't I help you to understand That life is just time passing thru your hands There's no easy path thru it The truth is there is no truth to it Moving thru the spotlight Don't let the paparazzi world define you Now you've made your mark on it I know you believed the hope of it You know nobody wins It's the way you lose that keeps it hopeful Didn't I tell you I will be there Didn't I show you I really care You spoke of your plans for it You talked all about your destiny I could see the rain clouds But I couldn't stop the rain from falling You tried to go way beyond it You'd already made the most of it Nothing wrong with dreaming Just don't fool yourself about the meaning Didn't I tell you the way back home Didn't I warn you to stay on the road Didn't I help you to understand That life is just time passing thru your plans You say that you can't let go of it That your life only works because of it You're afraid that you can't hold on to it But your heart doesn't seem so sold on it Why not try to believe the heart of it Why not try to perceive the art in it Why not let me be more a part of it Didn't I tell you that I'd be there Didn't I show you that I really care Didn't I tell you the way back home Didn't I warn you to stay on the road Didn't I help you to understand That life is just time passing thru your hands
