Too late for the young gun
And now he'll dream some magic queen
This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife
This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife
To lead a simple life
Too late for the young gun
This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife
Too late for the young gun
Sun and the moon
They say his famous final words
Came from the heart of the man
The wind and the rain
Love will turn to stone
This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife
This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife
They say his famous final words
This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife
I made my bed on love denied
Sun and the moon
Feel the fire go cold
Played Jekyll and Hyde till the day he died
He made his bed on love denied
Might try and save his life
Summer will turn to winter
This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife
Came from the heart of the man
This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife
Too late, much too late
See the mountains crumble
This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife
To lead a simple life
Too late for the young gun I said
This is the year of the knife, this is the year of the knife
