You picked your chair to sit in,
you made the bed in which you lay.
I used to tuck you in it,
you let your dreams take you away.
The clock was always ticking,
I fought it off and stayed awake.
But now these nights look different,
the color's dyed another way.
So, you asked me what would I do
if, just for a minute, I was you.
I took every step
in your heart and in your head.
I see what you see
but nothing looks right, you brought me somewhere I'd never be.
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
You carved out your decision
before you took the turn from me.
The life we almost lived in,
the mornings walking Turnham Green.
So, you asked me what would I do
if, just for a minute, I was you
I took every step
in your heart and in your head.
I see what you see
but nothing looks right, you brought me somewhere I'd never be.
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh.
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh.
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh.
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh.
I took every step
in your heart and in your head.
I see what you see
but nothing looks right, you brought me somewhere I'd never be.
