FADING FOOTPRINTS

That I was a toy

So you made a ploy

Oh you naughty boy

You said I’d enjoy

CHORUS

You treated me like your big boss

Now I see you feel at a loss

I really need to know the cause

So I can your freedom endorse

How can you say it’s not by force?

II

You’re a chameleon

I am a static leaf

You blended your colour

Into mine so briefly

CHORUS

You treated me like your big boss

Now I see you feel at a loss

I really need to know the cause

So I can your freedom endorse

How can you say it’s not by force?

III

I never knew fears

Fears of losing could tear

Until you changed colour

With a leafy neighbour

CHORUS

You treated me like your big boss

Now I see you feel at a loss

I really need to know the cause

So I can your freedom endorse

How can you say it’s not by force?

IV

I learnt, someday,

When tears finish their say

Karma will make you pay

I still can’t believe that…

CHORUS

You treated me like your big boss

Now I see you feel at a loss

I really need to know the cause

So I can your freedom endorse

How can you say it’s not by force?
