Lyrics

Yes, I am blind, no I can't see
The good things, just the bad things, oh
Yes, I am blind, no I can't see
There must be something horribly wrong with me

God, come down if You're really there
Well, You're the one who claims to care

Love's young dream
I'm the one who shopped you
I'm the one who stopped you
'Cause in my sorry way I love you

Love's young dream
Are you sorry for what you've done?
Well, you're not the only one
And in my sorry way I love you

Yes, I am blind but I do see
Evil people prosper over the likes of you and me, always

God, come down if You're really there
Well, You're the one who claims to care

Little lamb on a hill run fast if you can
Good Christians, they wanna kill you
And your life has not even begun
You're just like me, you're just like me

Oh, your life has not even begun
You're just like me, you're just like me
And your life has not even begun
You're just like me, just like me

And your life has not even begun
You're just like me, you're just like, just like me
And your life has not even begun

-|East west, over the ocean
+Yes, I am blind, no I can't see
-Perpetual motion, traveling around
+The good things, just the bad things, oh
-No rest singing and playing
+Yes, I am blind, no I can't see
-Night out and day in doing the rounds
+There must be something horribly wrong with me
+God, come down if You're really there
+Well, You're the one who claims to care
-What a great life this must seem
+Love's young dream
+I'm the one who shopped you
+I'm the one who stopped you
+'Cause in my sorry way I love you
-Swelled joints, every thing classy
+Love's young dream
-Nothing is tacky, only the best
+Are you sorry for what you've done?
-Lush girls, older and dying
+Well, you're not the only one
-Sighing and crying, 'This is success'
+And in my sorry way I love you
-What a great life this must seem
+Yes, I am blind but I do see
+Evil people prosper over the likes of you and me, always
-But when I hear your voice singing out
+God, come down if You're really there
-The bells of home are ringing out
+Well, You're the one who claims to care
-And I feel all alone
-(And I think of my home)
-Cold times a wind through the houses
+Little lamb on a hill run fast if you can
-The bleakness arouses a longing to leave
+Good Christians, they wanna kill you
-Time flew, I wanted to see you
+And your life has not even begun
-Somehow I could not do because of success
+You're just like me, you're just like me
-What a strange life this can be
+Oh, your life has not even begun
+You're just like me, you're just like me
+And your life has not even begun
+You're just like me, just like me
-But when I hear your voice singing out
+And your life has not even begun
-The bells of home are ringing out
+You're just like me, you're just like, just like me
-And I feel all alone
+And your life has not even begun
-(And I think of my home)
