The man in these clothes would say I've broken every rule I've stolen your love and played you for a fool And you in the shadow, you can't face another dawn I've broken my promise and left you so alone We didn't know the way it would go when our two became one So far away, that September day in the sun The man in these clothes has seen the pleasure and the pain A cold empty vessel and the shell is what remains And you in your rage, you say you want to break my bones A love torn and tainted for which the body now atones So far to fall, too crippled to crawl, we were flying so high Then we discover the water of love has run dry The man in these clothes can see that you're hurting The man in these clothes still cares The man in these clothes is listening and learning You're always a part of the man in these clothes The man in these clothes can still remember you in white Your smile and your whisper as you stepped into the light Our future, our fortune was impossible to tell Now the man in these clothes can only wish you well
