The Verlaines

It Was
He stayed to see the end of an era come around While the road to the north filled with people getting out And he mistook the dawn for the sun as it was going down He had a song in his heart like the joy of spring And he felt like he could have tackled anything And he was sure in his mind that his great design Was gonna stand the world upon its head with admiration
It was A monumental failure Everyone was saying, 'Well I told you.' After all he's nothing but a dreamer Who never should have tried achieving anything else
I saw him before he was hidden in a shroud Before all his dreams had come crashing to the ground Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And I hear by rapport it would break your heart to see him now Well he cracked like a bell and he turned to drink Just a dull thud in place of a crystal ring And the smile on his face Still has not been traced It hit the road the day before the final performance
It was A monumental failure Everyone was saying, 'Well I told you.' After all he's nothing but a dreamer He's just a dreamer Who should have tried achieving anything else He should have had the sense to keep his dreams to himself
