There's a man who came to stay
The boy he replaced, disappeared without a trace
Stole all my songs and my style away
Why no one would say, but they wanted to say
So he was king for a day
If you sail into the sun
Beware the eyes of green
And if the whole room tells you, you are the one
Well I defy you not to believe them, my son
ย
There's a man who came to stay
Check on for test, now the kitchen's a mess and the garden's undressed
Every single gig I play
Something's not right inside
Paranoia and pride, and nowhere to hide
If you sail into the sun (la la la la la la la)
Beware the eyes so green
And if the whole world tells you, you are the one
Think you'll hear all those voices again my son
ย
If you sail into the sun
Please beware the eyes of green
And if it's all too much for you my son
I'm still there where we begun
