Sleight Of Time |
| He holds the mirror to my soul |
| A beautiful mystery |
| He is too young |
| I am too old |
| Yet we fit perfectly |
| How could you feel |
| Emotions I could never reveal |
| Sleight of hand or of sleight of time |
| Tell me why can’t he be mine |
| Am I a pawn in someone’s game |
| And some grand illusion |
| Sent here to taunt him without shame |
| Causing confusion |
| How could he know |
| I had nothing, nowhere else to go |
| Sleight of hand or sleight of time |
| Tell me why can’t he be mine |
| I cried a river of regret |
| Indulged in misery |
| Why long for something I can’t get |
| When I get it eventually |
| How could he see |
| That our love was always meant to be |
| Sleight of hand or sleight of time |
| Tell me why can’t he be mine |
| Why can’t he be mine |
| Why can’t he be … |
