Ya chewed me up and ya spat me out
the foolish boy that I am
so I chose to wander around and around
and make myself a man

I thought the world could be changed by
a good song and smile
but its been this way such a long time
so maybe I?m wrong

so long ago it must be
you're still the one that's troubling me
and still so far, so far away
I sat with a tear in my hand on a day so long ago

inside I am an ogre
with the simple thoughts of a child
I say what I think and I need to be loved
but I guess that's not your style

so long ago it must be
that you're still the one that's troubling me
and still so far, so far away
I sat with a tear in my hand on a day so long ago
