Day follows night, night follows day
I followed you but your ran away
Now you're standing behind me asking me to stay
Day follows night, night follows day
When I first met you I was young
Never heard of Eckhart of of Jung
Now I'm multi-tiered and I've grown a beard
When I first met you I was young
When I first met you you were shy
You had your Great Dane by your side
Now you seem to have no qualms about shouting in the halls
When I first met you you were shy
How can you steal, how can you rob?
Why can't I keep a lousy job?
You take what you need & I give when you plead
How can you steal, how can you rob?
Gonna break this cycle before it breaks me
Gonna climb a mountain to see the trees
There's a break in the line or there's a break in my mind
Gonna break this cycle before it breaks me
