I'm sorry, mother
I'm sorry I let you down
Well, these days I'm fine
No these days I tend to lie
I'll take the West train
Just by the side of Amsterdam
Just by my left brain
Just by the side of the tin man
 
I'm sorry, brother
I'm sorry I let you down
Well, these days you're fine
No these days you tend to lie
You'll take the West train
Just by the side of Amsterdam
Just by your left brain
Just by the side of the tin man
 
Your time will come
If you wait for it, if you wait for it
It's hard
Believe me
I've tried
But I keep coming up short
 
I'm sorry, lover
I'm sorry I bring you down
Well, these days I try
And these days I tend to lie
Kinda thought it was a mystery
And then I thought I wasnt meant to be
You said yourself fantastically
"Congratulations, you are all alone"
 
Your time will come
If you wait for it, if you wait for it
It's hard
Believe me
I've tried
 
Your time will come
If you wait for it, if you wait for it
It's hard
Believe me
I've tried
 
But the rain won't fall for the both of us
The sun won't shine on the both of us
Believe me when I say
That I wouldn't have it any other way
 
Your time will come
If you wait for it, if you wait for it
It's hard
Believe me
I've tried
But I won't wait much longer
Cause these walls they're crashing down
And I won't wait much longer
Cause these walls they're crashing down
And I keep coming up short
