Ten Years Ago (demo 1985) Songtext
von Savage

I′m brushin' up my memories
My brain is like a camera
It′s showin' me some pictures of My life

Among those photographs of mind
An unforgettable image
Can make me recognise your face

To strike the balance of my life
Is simply useless now for me
My watch is always slow you know
I'm weak

You wanted me to be so strong
I couldn′t take a chance on you
And now I know that I was wrong
A real fool


If I could buy the years
I spent I′d put them in a money-box
So I could live that time again
With you

I wasn't there to squeeze your hand
When you needed me and now
It′s late to realise the price
I've lost

Then years ago
All my life was just a video game
Then years ago Remember
Then years ago I was sure that
I could buy the world
Then years ago

How strange is sometimes to recall
Your mind can fly but you can follow
′Cause your body is not so free
And I


I'd like to know if you′re in love
If you just think of me sometimes
But to my questions no reply
It's too late
