Lyrics John Wetton

John Wetton

When Will You Realize

This is the year that we all live in fear

There's no future for you and I

It may be your dream but you don't fit in my scheme

And I'll run from your loving arms, it will be, that

You've not seen the bad side of me

I will stay in your sweet memory, 'till you die…

This is the day you should wake up and say

You'll discover what's going down because,

Maybe you're thinking that love's everlasting,

But no, there's something wrong, when you're sure

That the odds are all stacked on your side

But I'm only along for the ride, you'll observe…

This is the hour as it starts to turn sour and

You find out, that love's a sad game and

This is the moment you're losing, confusing,

That same old sympathy, but you carry on

And you dance 'till the guests have all gone,

There'll be no-one to carry you home,

You're alone, all alone… and

When will you realize?
