Lyrics

You know it's true we're both the same
In a storm of words we get lost in what is said
You know me and you see through me
So why are you confused by the things I say and do?
Do you know me?

You see the strain upon my face
Please , don't rain on my parade
It comes to light, it comes in waves
It's gone too late
It goes astray, it goes too far and you say
It's clear I know where all your buttons are
It's not so strange, you know, it's not so queer
That I know they're there 'cause I'm the one
Who put them there, exactly as you feared
I know you and I see though you
So why am I surprised by the things you say and do?
I don't know why

I see the strain upon your face
I won't rain on your parade
It comes to light it comes in waves
It's gone too late
Don't steal the smile fom off my face
Please don't rain on my parade..

I know that I can't replace you
And it would be a lie to say that I could ever try

It's gone too late
It's gone too late
It cuts too ways
It cuts too ways
It's gone too late
