Ed Harcourt - The Man That Time Forgot lyrics

He's the man that time forgot Put your eye to the keyhole Tied his future in a knot Pushed it out to see And like a tyrant on his d**hbed He keeps on breathing She remembers what he said When he fell in the gutter "Not even all the tea in china Can pull me out of here" And like a boxer who is blinded He keeps on fighting I never meant to cause you pain I'd like the chance to start again And everyone I love has mostly given up And like it or not I'm the man that time forgot With a ticket in his hand He stands on the platform But the train it never comes So he teeters down the track And like a deer that's just been wounded He knows that it's over I never meant to cause you pain I'd like the chance to start again And everyone I love has mostly given up And like it or not I'm the man that time forgot Please don't remember me this way, my darling Don't you remember me this way sweet darling Shut out your memories till they fade sweet darling Please don't remember me this way My darling Mmmm And like it or not I'm the man that time forgot
