[02:16.35]But the wheels of fate
[02:18.05]had started to turn
[02:19.10]And for me there was no way out
[02:22.08]It wasn't very long
[02:23.14]till I knew exactly
[02:24.18]What my Mama'd been talking about
[02:26.84]I knew what I had to do
[02:28.49]but I made myself this solemn vow

[02:36.56]But I couldn't see spending
[02:38.01]the rest of my life
[02:39.26]With my head hung down in shame
