Fate just took a wrong turn,
It would appear that we don't agree,
And without warning sign I stopped just in time,
When you ran straight in front of me

Well I don't listen to the rumours,
And I don't care who you have for tea,
I think you'll find that the thief commits the crime,
At the end of the book you'll see

You tore me right down,
You've got a hold on me,
I can't believe it's true,
But I believe in me

It's been so long,
It's been so long

Don't ever talk to strangers,
You never know what they're gonna say,
And it may be a surprise right in front of your eyes,
They get up, and they walk away

So the next time you see me listen,
Cos I've got something I want to say,
You've got the wrong attitude and you act like a fool,
And you will pass by within a day

You tore me right down,
You've got a hold on me,
I can't believe it's true,
But I believe in me

You tore me right down,
You've got a hold on me,
I can't believe it's true,
It's just the end of time

You tore me right down,
You've got a hold on me,
I can't believe it's true,
But I believe in me

You tore me right down,
You've got a hold on me,
I can't believe it's true,
But I believe in me

It's been so long,
It's been so long

It's been so long,
It's been so long

It's been so long
