The Ruse took so long

These eyes have seen enough
To know when it’s time to stop
And these hands can’t hold you up
They’re much too old , they’re much too rough
I’m part of the background
Down in the shadow
You see my reflection
In the water and in the light
You can see me now
In my darkest hour
And you smile
C’mon what took so long to fall in love?
What took so long to find my heart?
What took so long to fall apart?
These days have come and gone
With so much love and so much hurt
But your eyes remain the same
They just get deeper, they just get soft
And you can see me now
In my darkest Hour
You smile
C’mon what took so long to fall in love?
What took so long to find my heart?
What took so long to fall apart?
