Lyrics
I had a dream of us together in a world where we knew what was true
Oh Patti don't lead the life that I left you with
It's been such a long time and I know
We tried together to discover why we failed the test of our time
Oh Patti don't lead the life that they made for you
I'll be gone a long while and you'll know
And don't feel sorry for lover boy
You know he wants the world to love him and then he goes and spoils it all
Don't feel sorry for lover boy
He wants the world to love him then he goes and spoils it all for love
There's no one out here you can listen to and certainly never yourself
Oh Patti don't lead the life that I left you with
Listen to the cars call in the rain
I got so tired of concluding that there's nothing for us to conclude
Oh Patti don't look for certainty in your life
I've gone where a lost cause can be found
And don't feel sorry for lover boy
You know he wants the world to love him and then he goes and spoils it all
Don't feel sorry for lover boy
He wants the world to love him then he goes and spoils it all for love
All for love, little girl
All for love, little girl
(Muted trumpet solo)
And don't feel sorry for lover boy
You know he wants the world to love him and then he goes and spoils it all
Don't feel sorry for lover boy
He wants the world to love him then he goes and spoils it all for love
