[00:05.60]The first thing that I heard you say
[00:07.79]When you were standing there sad in your way
[00:10.26]Was that you were not blind
[00:17.49]You were sure to make a fool of me
[00:19.59]'Cause there was nothing there that you could see
[00:22.19]That could go beyond your mind
[00:29.81]Now who's standing at the door
[00:31.89]Remembering the days before
[00:34.37]Asking, "Please be kind!"
[00:41.24][02:14.13]It isn't how it was set up to be
[00:44.08]But I set you free this time
[00:51.54]I have never been so far out in front
[00:53.87]That I could ever ask for what I want
[00:56.31]And have it any time
[01:03.56]Knowing this you found the thoughtful me
[01:06.13]That told you just what I should be
[01:08.30]And there I stood behind
[01:15.86]With all the ones that were before
[01:18.06]And memories that always seem to tear me from my mind
[01:27.75]In front of what it is you see me to be
[01:30.53]I've set you free this time
[01:37.80]I could never find a chance to choose between a way to win or a thing to lose
[01:42.97]Because there was your stand
[01:50.33]On top of all of the love you took
[01:52.47]That was always something you could look at
[01:55.25]Lying in your hand
[02:02.00]Now who's wondering what has changed
[02:04.77]And why it cannot be arranged
[02:07.20]To have each thing work fine
[02:17.22]But I've set you free this time
