When i think of the times   that i wished that i could have   been you   was i really frightened    never turned a hair, playing the   field like a king   you were a diamond in a coalmine   were you just living out that song   and whose fault thaat you got it all wrong   so falls the sungod as you were      Taking on the world   somehow the world just knocked   you over   taking on the world   we thought you were flying you   were really   dying... goodbye      It's so hard to go up to a friend   when defences are down   wheen he is a rival   were you just too proud   to show us what we couldn't see   only survival and a lifeline   you could have used a helping hand   you could havegiven me one chance to listen   so falls the sungod as you were      Do you know you're grown up   when you know you know nothing at all   starting out from zero   when you've watched your friend   falling apart from inside   you saw a hero not a falling angel   if looks could kill you'd kill on sight   when all the time you were   freezing in sunlight   so falls the sungod as you were
