Time, time makes a mockery Of all your dreams, this is a certainty You would cry, if you knew Life, life has no alibis for all its crimes, this I can testify You would cry, if you knew What it could do to you You would cry if you knew Chorus: Am I fool to expect a miracle Such a fool to be so gullible Oh I need a miracle Tonight... Once we were innocent But all our lives We've been taught to repent I would cry 'cause I knew What you were going through I would cry 'cause I knew Repeat chorus
