Ooh, I watched you grow up

Only to despise

I seen the madness stack up

Through tarpaulin eyes

I have heard you come up

Believing your own lies

Witnessed the blessing rise up

In a, a very strange disguise

Though you have become a burden

One thing remains, that's for certain

I will love you all my life

But without you in my life

Ooh, I watched you climb up
I seen you come alive

From those very humble beginnings

In NW5

Though we face the final curtain

One thing remains, that's for certain

I will love you all my life

But without you in my life

I would give you everything

For just the smile you bring

For just the song to sing

I would give you everything

For just that smile you bring

For just that song to sing, I sing now
Yes, I watched you grow up

Only to despise

Witnessed the blessing rise up

In a, a very strange disguise

Nothing, it seems, lasts forever

People change just like the weather

Some for good and sometimes never

I hope things work out for the better

I would give you everything

For just the smile you bring

For just the song to sing

I would give you everything

For just the smile you bring
For just the song to sing, I sing

Nothing, it seems, lasts forever

People change just like the weather

Some for good and sometimes never

I hope things work out for the better

I would give you everything

For just the smile you bring

For just the song to sing

I would give you everything

For just the smile you bring

For just the song to sing, I sing

I would give you everything

For just the smile you bring

For just the song to sing, I sing now
