Four long years ago, the wolf at my door
Four long years ago, my feet upon the floor and now you're crying

Would you believe me if I told you
That my mind had changed me
That I had rearranged me and now you're crying?

 And it's a long long way
 It's such a long long way
 So many turning, so many turnings

Would you believe me if I told you
That I'm sorry for the logic in the lies
That I found, to my complete surprise, the truth?

Would you believe me if I told you
That I didn't want to lose you?
That's why I had to bruise you so sadly

Would you believe me if I told you
When I said that I could marry you
I surely didn't mean to carry you to here?

Would you believe me if I told you
That a twenty years you
Simply had got no control over time
