I was only eighteen, chasing dreams And my mother screamed "Don't be thinking things" I wanted fame, but who's to blame? That life felt good enough for me to chase away, away But now that I have it all I won't let you down, down, down, down, down I'd give it all away, 'way, 'way, 'way, 'way For another day with you 'Cause when the mirror starts to fall I won't be around, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round You'll think of all the pain, pain, pain, pain, pain That I've put you through And maybe one day I'll be forgiven And we'll go back to the place again When I was only eighteen, only eighteen I had a picture, a great disaster in my mind And the world would look at me And love me through all disguise But now that I'm older I think of what I've lost chasing time I found disorder, comes in pain in this life, this life But now that I have it all I won't let you down, down, down, down, down I'd give it all away, 'way, 'way, 'way, 'way For another day with you 'Cause when the mirror starts to fall I won't be around, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round You'll think of all the pain, pain, pain, pain, pain That I've put you through And maybe one day I'll be forgiven And we'll go back to the place again When I was only eighteen, only eighteen And maybe one day I'll be forgiven For the pain I put you in When I was only eighteen, only eighteen I was only eighteen
