Mike Rutherford - Calypso

★ verse 1 ★

Ever since i met you
I’ve been trying to find out why
No one seems to bother you
No one seems to care what’s going on
There’s a lot going on
If i have a question
Why give me another?
Nothing ever happens if i try to discover where you’ve been
I know something’s going on
But i know

★ chorus ★

You don’t understand
It’s the same old feeling that i have
But there’s nothing to do about it
And there’s nothing i can do about
It’s the same old story, it’s the same old game
No one understands
That i’ve had this dream before
But i rеally better need to be
And i rеally better need to think
It’s the same old story, it’s the same old game
★ verse 2 ★

Where were you when i needed you the other night?
Have you ever wondered why i’ve not got the sense to give it up?
Now i got the sense to give it up
But i know

★ chorus ★

You don’t understand
It’s the same old feeling that i have
But there’s nothing to do about it
And there’s nothing i can do about
It’s the same old story, it’s the same old game
No one understands
That i’ve had this dream before
But i think i heard the questions
And i think you got the answers
It’s the same old story, it’s the same old game
