 x2
 It seemed so easy at the start
 When I left my heart
 Sitting on the roof of the car
 And drove off
 And I rushed to leave the past behind
 Forgot that heart was mine
 I didn't even know at the time
 I had one
 I put the pedal to the floor
 Heading for the western shore
 Thinking only of high times
 I had there
 Oh I was cruel, cruel, cruel
 I thought I'd fly too high to fall
 But I never flew
 Never left the ground at all
 Greedy to get underway
 I made that old mistake
 Of sneering at familiar streets
 And faces
 Did you marry someone good
 From our neighbourhood
 Or are you on the other side of the world
 Still searching
 x2
 Oh I was cruel, cruel, cruel
 I thought I'd fly too high to fall
 But I never flew
 Never left the ground at all, at all
 So next time, time, time
 I'll dream in days or on your mind
 Look me up, 'cause I
 Never left those days behind, behind
 I've done some things I never should have done
 Now I've come down, don't tell me that I'm out of time
 Turn back your love upon a pie-eyed fool
 Forget the things I did
 x2
 When I was cruel, cruel, cruel
 I thought I'd fly too high to fall
 'Cause I never flew
 Never left the ground at all, at all
 So next time, time, time
 I'll dream in days or on your mind
 Look me up, 'cause I
 Never left those days behind, behind
