When I was naive and young, didn't know how things are done
Didn't shower quite enough, still got showered by your love
Started loving you with all I had to give as this young boy
Still I wasn't quite a man, so I didn't stand a chance
Only time will tell, whether you've done well, and it might just be too late for you to safe yourself
Oh, your eyes are sparkling, can't tell if you're laughing, or if the leaves start to fall
Suddenly I realised, it takes more to lead this life
All your words of hurt were right, you were gone just over night
Leaving me all by myself, without knowing I had failed
Started sinking way too deep, captain of my submarine
Only time will tell, whether you've done well, and it might just be too late for you to safe yourself
Oh, your eyes are sparkling, can't tell if you're laughing, or if the leaves start to fall
I had a dream, in between dreams, can't you see?
I had a dream, I couldn't unsee, about you and me
I had a dream, wished it was real, and never woke up
Only time will tell, whether you've done well, and it might just be too late for you to safe yourself
Oh, your eyes are sparkling, can't tell if you're laughing, or if the leaves start to fall
I used to be naive and young, now I know how things are done
Now I shower every day, got rid of all this rotten smell
Still I love you with all my heart, am prepared to do my part
I am ready to be a man, so maybe give me another chance
Only time will tell, whether you've done well, and it might just be too late for me to save myself
Oh your eyes are sparkling, can't tell if you're laughing, or if the leaves start to fall
