i heard you ring, so you'll be there with bells
i know you know, this side of things so well
i'm standing here, and waiting for an answer
and still in awe

somehow i knew it was impossible
and somehow i knew
and it's taking a long time, i knew it was impossible
and somehow i knew
yeah i knew

this time is closer
and somehow, now
it's not what i wanted

think for yourself, it makes no sense to me
but i believe
hey, hey, in time you'll know, you've know it all along
to take a bow and leave them with a song

somehow i knew it was impossible
and somehow i knew
yeah i knew

this time is closer
and somehow, now
it's not what i wanted

and it's taking a long time
i knew it was impossible
and somehow i knew
yeah i knew

this time is closer, and somehow, now
it's closer
and somehow
it's not what i wanted
