Last night I told a stranger all about you They smiled patiently with disbelief I always knew you would succeed no matter what you tried And I know you did it all in spite of me Still I'm proud to have know you for the short time that I did Glad to have been a step up on your way Proud to be part of your illustrious career And I know you did it all in spite of me In spite of me Late last night I saw you in my living room You seemed so close but yet so cold For a long time I thought that you'd be coming back to me Those kind of thoughts can be so cruel So cruel and I know you did it all in spite of me In spite of me
