The Man That Time Forgot – Ed Harcourt – letras

He’s the man that time forgotPut your eye to the keyholeTied his future in a knotPushed it out to seeAnd like a tyrant on his deathbedHe keeps on breathingShe remembers what he saidWhen he fell in the gutter »Not even all the tea in chinaCan pull me out of here »And like a boxer who is blindedHe keeps on fightingI never meant to cause you painI’d like the chance to start againAnd everyone I love has mostly given upAnd like it or notI’m the man that time forgotWith a ticket in his handHe stands on the platformBut the train it never comesSo he teeters down the trackAnd like a deer that’s just been woundedHe knows that it’s overI never meant to cause you painI’d like the chance to start againAnd everyone I love has mostly given upAnd like it or notI’m the man that time forgotPlease don’t remember me this way, my darlingDon’t you remember me this way sweet darlingShut out your memories till they fade sweet darlingPlease don’t remember me this wayMy darlingMMAnd like it or notI’m the man that time forgot
