Many too many have stood where I stand Many more will stand here too, But I think what I find strange is the way you built me up Then knocked me down again. The part was fun but now it´s over. Why can´t I just leave the stage? Maybe that´s because you securely locked me up Then threw away the key. Oh mama, please would you find the key. Oh pretty mama, please won´t you let me go free. I though I was lucky I thought that I´d got it made. How could I be so blind? You said goodbye on a corner That I though led to the straight, You set me on a firmly laid and simple course And then removed the road. Oh mama, please help me find the way. Oh pretty mama, please lead ne through the next day. I through I was lucky I through that I´d got it made. How could I be so blind?
