Of how I loved and how I failed
And one and one is two but three is company
When you're thinking about the things you do
When I will get you alone
I've got to tell you my tale
And you're thinking about the things you do
That living is for other men
In every child, in every eye
In every kiss, you understand
And in every face I meet
Maybe we could find a room
I hope that I know, so come with me in bed
Where we could see what we should do
And I think you know about me 'cause I am
I've got a skin full of dope
In every kiss, you understand
In every sky, above my head
Living with me is like keeping a fool
But you were weak and so am I
Then why am I going to a place that now belongs to you
But the bed ain't made it's filled full of hope
I hope you understand
Of how I loved and how I failed
There's something that I might have missed
That living is for other men
These feelings should not be in the man
Don't dream away your life
Do you understand there's more in a smile than in a hand
I'm thinking about history and I'm living for history
In every man, in every hand
'Cause it is mine, it is mine
To live today, so why not smile
Let's pick it up, let's even try
I hope you know that I am me so come on
Is that a crime? Is that a crime? This life is mine
I want to tell you my tale
I hope you understand
There ain't nothing left to say
In every sky, in every kiss
In every man, in every hand
Because it's you and me, we're history
I've got to tell you my tale
Oh the bed ain't made but it's filled full of hope
Reminds me of what I have run from
I hope you too will understand
And how I fell in love and jumped out on my bail
Maybe you know it's true
