When I Was

HARRY:
There was a time when life had meaning
Not so long ago
I knew the lines, it was easy being
The star of the show
There was a time when things were fine
I could make wine from water
There was a time when I was happy
When I was Harry Potter

(Ginny talks to the diary)

TOM RIDDLE:
There was a time when I was hopeful
When I was good inside
Everyone said that I was evil
Maybe they were right
I changed my name, I went insane
I never felt so little
I was a fool -to think they could love me
When I was Thomas Riddle

HARRY & TOM RIDDLE:
Ive fallen
From up high
The world has said goodbye
Im not an angel
Not the answer
I'm just going nowhere faster

HARRY:
There was a time I was a hero
But that heros gone
Looking back, I can hardly see him
Everyones moved on

HARRY & TOM RIDDLE:
Cast me aside
Throw me away
Go on, forget
Yesterday
And I'll try forgetting too
(But) I wish it was
Just like it was before

(Harry leaves Hogwarts)

HARRY:
Ive fallen
From up high
The world has said goodbye
Im not an angel
Not the answer
How did life become a disaster?
I'm just going nowhere faster

There was a time before I was adored by every son and daughter
There was a time when I was happy
When I was Haaaarry Potter
