I hope one day to return to my past
So I will take a trip across the sea
And I will leave the love I prayed would last
The love of fame that once had set me free
For fame’s stronger than any man can be,
And as deep as the sea that I had crossed
But that love was the thing that blinded me
Til I was forced to question what I’d lost.
For in my quest for love I know I’d tossed
Aside the life that I once held so close.
So ignorant of what my love had cost
That I forgot what I once loved the most.
Be wary of the lure that fame will use.
You’ll love the time until you find you lose.
