If ever you had counted    The centuries you threw away    And all the lies that you had started    And all the chances thrown away       If I set sail for new horizons    Could I still leave you waiting here    I would chase just one set of chances    The others would be thrown away       Even though we tried time wasn't on our side    Then there came the day we threw it all away    Thrown away    Thrown away    Thrown away       My winter nights are so much colder    Than yours could ever be    I wish I hadn't been a traveller    I would not have had to go away       When all is said and all is over    When all is just a memory    Our ships will stay for just a moment    Leaving false Gods and hypocrisy       Even though we tried time wasn't on our side    Then there came the day we threw it all away    Thrown away    Thrown away    Thrown away      Even though we tried time wasn't on our side    Then there came the day we threw it all away    Thrown away    Thrown away    Thrown away    Thrown away   Thrown away    Thrown away   Thrown away
