All this time I have followed the rules   And I've lived the perfect life   Alright   By somebody else's standards   All this time I did not feel too bad   But I was not what you call happy   Not really   I was searching for something   And all this time you were standing by   And all this time you were waiting      All this time I've been living a lie   And I even fooled myself completely   Now I'm really ready   Right or wrong   I will follow your course   And if you go down I'll drown   So save me   I'm not as strong as I look yea   All this time I've been saying   No   But all this time   I've been meaning      Yes I'm ready to take your hand   Follow you into the promise land   Ooh yea let's talk about it   I'm a fool for you   Ducking and diving   'cos I'm a fool for you   All this time I've been saying   No   But all this time   I've been meaning   Yes I'm ready to take your hand   Follow you into the promise land
