The things you said were not untrue

The things you wore were okay too

The things you kept the things you threw away

The things you thought I never knew, will stay

The love I showed was partly cold, ow

The things I said were mostly true

The things you did were partly known

The dreams I had will go untold, yeah

They say what fate deals, time heals all wounds

Well, tell that to my heart that bleeds

'Cause if the hands of fate and time were truly by my side

I could look at you today without crying

The thing I was to you was gone

The thing you were to me was blue

The thing I wanted to unfold and turn

Make paper tigers into gold auburn

They say what fate deals, time heals all wounds

Well, tell that to my heart that bleeds

'Cause if the hands of fate and time were truly by my side

I could look at you today without dying

The things we said we'd never say

If things get tough we'll say them anyway
