To all the guards at the castle gate I have made my very best case There's nothing left I can do or say To convince them this way, that way In my defense there was no time left And I got caught looking around I'm on my knees now, suddenly pleading This is what I need, I guess All I can do is to walk amongst the hours And all that I find is the day outside I'm not left behind when I'm on my own time To everyone kneeling down at the gate There is something you should know I must admit, I've been here twenty years Never once have I seen it open Do what you want, don't just take it from me But I stand up and turn around Life moves on quick with or without me I may as well take my chances now All I can do is to walk amongst the hours And all that I find is the day outside I'm not left behind when I'm on my own time ♪ All I can do is to walk amongst the hours And all that I find is the day outside I'm not left behind All I can do is to walk amongst the hours I never knew And all that I find is the day outside I'm not left behind when I'm on my own time
