Select language to translate this lyric
I thought I saw it coming
Still took me by surprise
It was difficult to sidestep
Nowhere left to hide
Even though I saw it coming
It's out of your control
But I'm feeling so much better
Now you're off my payroll
Seems we're always waiting
For those demons to appear
Seems we're always watching
If it's one or if it's per
The magic has been broken
The spell has washed away
Fences have been shifted
As a smell of slow decay
Even though I saw it coming
The memory plays tricks
I tried so hard to make it all work out
I thought I saw it coming
But you put me in a fix
This house is made of straw â¦
And not bricks
How long before I forget
The fuss I made of you
You are just a memory
And I was passing through
I thought I saw it coming
Never saw you walk the line
What you need is help, my friend â¦
What you need is time
Now I gave all I could to you
But it never was enough
We all know where we're heading
when the going gets tough
I thought I saw it coming
We all went for the ride
A problem for your dignity â¦
And a problem for your pride
Even though I saw it coming
The memory plays tricks
I tried so hard to make it all work out
I thought I saw it coming
But you put me in a fix
This house is made of straw â¦
And not bricks
