Blue Rodeo - You Said lyrics

You once said you could read my mind
So I thought about clouds and told you lies
Still I always thought you
Could see what hides
Behind these broken eyes
We climbed a hill far from the city glow
The wind blew our footprints away in the snow
The wind blew our footprints away in the snow

You looked to the north star
You looked back through me
You wondered who was the more deceived
The man in the moon or all
The stars in the sky?
While the sky turns like a giant wheel
You said that I was your cross to bare
Still you liked it better when I was there
But, you were tired of having
To play the role
Of being there for someone who's
Always out of control
The wind blew our footprints away in the snow
You once said you could read my mind
So I thought about clouds and I told you lies
