| [00:16.528] |
I suppose you're entitled to know why I'm making contact |
| [00:24.028] |
With acqaintances scattered all over the land |
| [00:31.066] |
I'd promise you now and again that I'd honor the contract |
| [00:38.578] |
If it hadn't crumbled away in my hand |
| [00:45.848] |
Well, we broke that vow independently now |
| [00:52.850] |
But I don't know why you absolutely deny |
| [00:58.522] |
You bowed down |
| [01:00.092] |
(you bowed down, you bowed down) |
| [01:05.832] |
You bowed down |
| [01:07.622] |
(you bowed down, you bowed down) |
| [01:14.758] |
When you first looked away I might say it was really a kindness |
| [01:22.920] |
It must have hurt to see how dreams sour |
| [01:29.510] |
Now they say that justice and love are the next things to blindness |
| [01:36.810] |
Well, you're getting plenty of both of them now |
| [01:43.972] |
And so you parade where appointments are made |
| [01:51.020] |
And never meant to be kept unless you accept |
| [01:56.436] |
You bowed down |
| [01:58.232] |
(you bowed down, you bowed down) |
| [02:04.024] |
You bowed down |
| [02:05.718] |
(you bowed down, you bowed down) |
| [02:13.340] |
You'll value the burnt amber of falling leaves |
| [02:16.698] |
And you'll long to delay |
| [02:20.440] |
You feel their breath as they whisper |
| [02:22.818] |
It won't hurt you now to betray |
| [02:26.742] |
If you just bow down |
| [02:34.944] |
And now every time that we meet on the edge of hysteria |
| [02:42.276] |
You're helping them sell off some new party line |
| [02:49.318] |
I remember a time when you would have seemed so superior |
| [02:56.682] |
And now you say, |
| [02:57.602] |
"Will you please meet this good friend of mine." “ |
| [03:03.840] |
So you're in demand as long as you kiss their hand |
| [03:11.260] |
But all the applause is for their name not yours |
| [03:16.784] |
You bowed down |
| [03:18.582] |
(you bowed down, you bowed down) |
| [03:24.100] |
You bowed down |
| [03:25.476] |
(you bowed down, you bowed down) |
| [03:31.538] |
You bowed down |
| [03:32.486] |
(you bowed down, you bowed down) |
| [03:38.690] |
You bowed down |
