Lyrics Ghost Trains - Crying For Time

Crying For Time

you told me to wait

so i'll wait for you

you told me the light

would keep shining through

you said it was easy

and that life could never change

but look, we're right back here at the start

you taught me to talk

like a tv show

you taught me to walk

through the christmas snow

you come with a fever

that can black out most of my mind

but look, the chestnut's jumped from the fire

don't waste your time on me

cos i'm not worth anything

the taste of lies as we preach

leaves me sick and reeling

all i want is my life back again

you turn like a fool

i can hear you now

you're rolling the ride

you're a crazy cow

there's nothing but history

and you keep on crying for time

but watch, as i tick tock out of your life
