MARILLION - Script For A Jester's Tear lyrics
rate me(derek disck/steve rothery/ pete trewavas/ micheal pointer/mark kelly)<br><br>So here I am once more<br>In the playground of the broken hearts<br>One more experience, one more entry in a diary, self-penned<br>Yet another emotional suicide<br>Overdosed on sentiment and pride<br>Too late to say I love you<br>Too late to restage the play<br>Abandoning the relics in my playground of yesterday<br><br>I'm losing on the swings<br>I'm losing on the roundabouts<br>I'm losing on the swings<br>I'm losing on the roundabouts<br>Too much, too soon, too far to go, too late to play<br>The game is over, the game is over<br><br>So here I am once more<br>In the playground of the broken hearts<br>I'm losing on the swings<br>I'm losing on the roundabouts<br>The game is over<br><br>Yet another emotional suicide<br>Overdosed on sentiment and pride<br>I'm losing on the swings<br>I'm losing on the roundabouts, roundabouts, the game is over<br><br>Too late to say I love you<br>Too late to restage the play<br>The game is over<br><br>I act the role in classic style<br>Of a martyr carved with twisted smile<br>To bleed the lyric for this song<br>To write the rites to right my wrongs<br>An epitaph to a broken dream<br>To exercise this silent scream<br>A scream that's born from sorrow<br><br>I never did write that lovesong<br>The words just never seemed to flow<br>Now sad in reflection did I gaze through perfection<br>And examine the shadows on the other side of morning<br>And examine the shadows on the other side of morning<br>Promised wedding now a wake<br>Promised wedding now a wake, awake<br><br>The fool escaped from paradise<br>Will look over his shoulder and cry<br>Sit and chew on daffodils and struggle to answer why? <br>As you grow up and leave the playground<br>Where you kissed your prince and found your frog<br>Remember the jester that showed you tears, the script for tears<br><br>So I'll hold our peace forever when you wear your bridal gown<br>In the silence of my shame the mute that sang the sirens' song<br>Has gone solo in the game<br>I've gone solo in the game, but the game is over<br><br>Can you still say you love me<br>Can you still say you love me<br>Can you still say that you love me<br>Do you love me<br>Do you love me<br>Do you love me<br>Do you love me, the jester's tear<br><br>Can you still say you love me<br>Can you still say you love me<br>Can you still say that you love me? <br><br>The jester's tear, the jester's tear<br>Do you love me
