B♭/B♭/B♭/B♭/
I 'm shouting all about love
While they treated you like a dog
When y ou were the one who had made it
so clear
Al l those years ago.
I 'm talking all about how to give
They don't act with much honesty
But yo u point the way to the truth when you say
Al l you need is love.
Living with g ood and bad
I always look up to you
Now we're left c old and sad
By someone the devil's best friend
Someone who offended all.
We're living in a bad dream
They've forgotten all about mankind
And y ou were the one they backed up to
the wall
Al l those years ago
Yo u were the one who Imagined it all
Al l those years ago.
B♭/B♭/B♭/B♭/
Deep in the d arkest night
I send out a prayer to you
Now in the w orld of light
Where the spirit free of the lies
And all else that we desp ised.
They've forgotten all about God
He's the only reason we exist
Yet y ou were the one that they said was
so weird
Al l those years ago
Yo u said it all though not many had ears
Al l those years ago
Yo u had contro l of our smiles and our tears
Al l those years ago
