Nights In White Satin , Pt 2 Lyrics - Singles - Eric Burdon & War

Who is the clown? 

Who is the fool? 

Which one knows he is playing 

and which one is last in the game? 

I can hear the voice, why can't they? 

I am glad I wasn't born into your world. 

It would be sad to be born into a world 

that does not believe in love anymore. 

I am not wrong! 

They say they understand me 

But I can't stand to be understood. 

I like for people to like me 

But they can never understand why I don't belong to anyone. 

Who am I? 

I am all of you. 

I belong to everyone, because I belong to no one. 

In my world there is no time. 

Time is being born and dying. 

Beyond time is living without being afraid 

Without trying to catch something 

Or run away from something. 

You can't get away from alone. 

You have to be alone before you can find other people. 

You can't hold onto life 

You can only touch it. 

How old is forever? 

When is too old to hope? 

You're tired and I'm not. 

You live against time 

And I have time to live. 

In my world, nothing has always been 

So nothing will always be. 

In my world we can still believe in hope. 

If you believe in forever 

You build a wall around the now. 

What is, is always changing 

If it isn't, then we are dying. 

I live in an ocean of time 

Where the past is lost in the future. 

There is time for everything 

There is time to love, to hope, to change. 

(Nobody knows me now)
