Lyrics
Time has made me your brother
When I used to be your lover
I search my inner source for reasons
But all I find is you
I still see you in my dreams
Reaching out to me it seems
If I could hold you one more time
I?d gladly give you ten years of my life
If it would make a difference
CHORUS
All the things we said and all the things I did
I never knew your heroes till it was too late
And all the things we did and all the things you said
I never knew your sorrows
Late at night alone in bed
Until the great mistake
You never made
You couldn?t see me in the mirror
I couldn?t show you who I am
Just a mortal?s thought for lust and prayer
Too dense for us to understand
You?re a stranger in a strange town
In a land that let you down
Move around with tubes and needles in your body
If only I could turn back time
I?d change your mind and make a difference
CHORUS
All the things we said and all the things I did
I never knew your heroes till it was too late
And all the things we did and all the things you said
I never knew your sorrows
Late at night alone in bed
Until the great mistake
You never made
