Lyrics

Ooh, life is bigger
Bigger than you, and you are not me
The length that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no, I said too much, I said enough
That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've said too much, I haven't said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
Every whisper
Of every waking hour, I'm choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt, lost and blinded fool
Oh no, I said too much, I said enough
Consider this
Consider this the hint of the century
Consider this the slip that brought me to my knees failed
What if all these fantasies come flailing around
Now I've said too much
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
That was just a dream
That was just a dream
That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, I've said too much, I haven't said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you cry
That was just a dream
That was just a dream
That was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream
