Common Children - Stains Of Time lyrics

(J.P. Maunick / M. Edwards)

Chorus:

Did we really ever try to understand each other?

Or was it just a game that sometimes people play?

Did we really ever see eye to eye, I wonder?

Was it just a game that sometimes people play?

[Sometimes people play]

I wonder if

We ever listened

To a word

That the other had to say

All that we shared

Our inner treasures

Are used against each other as we fall

Chorus

I wonder if

Before we started

We could have known

That the road would end this way

What makes us give

Our hearts so freely

Only to find that we're strangers after all

Chorus

Night and day, night and day, day and night

Night and day, people play, day and night

We fool ourselves

Into believing

Our difference will surely change in time

So we proceed

Blissfully blinded

Throwing caution to the wind along the way

Chorus
