Everybody laughed when I told them

I wanted you, I wanted you

Everybody grinned they humoured me

They thought that someone had spiked my tea

Everybody screamed they told me you

Would cost the moon, we'll be there soon

Everybody laughed 'til they were blue

They didn't believe my words were true

Everybody laughed but you

It's easy to lose touch with all the friends

You like so much or liked so much

Everybody laughed they couldn't take me seriously

Abandoned me

Sometimes I would read of things they'd done in magazines

They made the scene

Everybody left with such important things to do

But I'm not blue

Everybody left but you

Everybody left but you

Many years have passed

And some have fallen by the way I heard them say

Everybody dreamed but those who fell

Are sleeping now, they're sleeping now

Everybody climbed like ivy to the top most branch

It was their chance

Everybody grasped 'til they were through

It's all they thought that they could do

'Cause everybody fell

Everybody fell

Everybody fell but you
