Lyrics:

As far as I know

It was a grey November day,

in 1959 when it began

my mum used to wash

all my tears away

trying to protect her little son

I was supposed to be a doctor

I was supposed to be a man

who works hard for the government

hard 磘il the very end

I was supposed to be a banker

I was supposed to be a whore

then music came, heaven sent

became my only friend

my love and my helping hand

and it never let me down



it磗 been a long way

from that grey november, grey november day

磘il today

from that grey november day



then dad disappeared

I dried my mummy磗 tears

fought against my fears and lost my way

ten years ago

my daughter said : hello

hope started to grow

day by day

I was supposed to be a loser

I was supposed to be a clown

who drowned in the summer rain

jumped off the running train

I was supposed to be a popstar

I was supposed to be a jerk

Who doesn磘 know where he`s coming from

a singer without a song

no clue how to get along

but they were all wrong



It磗 been a long way..........



I was supposed to be a doctor

I was forced to heal myself

It felt good in the summer rain

Free and without a pain

I was supposed to be a loser

but I never lost myself

in this forest of memories

I started to climb the trees

Not a single one磗 too high



As far as I know

It was a grey november day

in 1959 when it began

I still dream of dad

Who sits next to the sun

And I hope he sees his son

Walk on
