Everybody grinned they humoured me

Everybody laughed but you
[Verse 2]

You like so much or liked so much
Everybody laughed they couldn't take me seriously

But I'm not blue
Everybody left but you
Everybody left but you
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
Many years have passed
And some have fallen by the way I heard them say
Everybody dreamed but those who fell
Are sleeping now, they're sleeping now
Everybody climbed like ivy to the top most branch
It was their chance
Everybody grasped till they were through
It's all they thought that they could do
[Outro]
Cause everybody fell
Everybody fell
Everybody fell but you
