To Cut A Long Story Short

Cut A Long Story Short - Spandau Ballet

Standing in the dark

I was waiting for man to come

I am beautiful and clean

And so very very young

Soldier is turning

I see him through white light

Running from strangers

See you in the valley

War upon war

Heat upon heat

To cut a long story short

I lost my mind

Sitting on a park bench

Years away from fighting

Well to cut a long story short

I lost my mind

Standing in the dark

I was waiting for man to come

I am beautiful and clean

And so very very young

To be standing in the street

To be taken by someone

Questions questions

Give me no answers

That's all they ever give me

Questions questions

Look at the strange boy

He finds it hard existing

Well to cut a long story short

I lost my mind

To cut a long story short

I lost my mind

Well to cut a long story short

I lost my mind
