Can I believe my ears?

is this really you?

Pacing the floor with one eye on the door

watching the winners go through

Why do you hang back now?

why d'you hesitate?

You fires don't burn

for he who waits



Out of all of the people

that I ever knew

If one should have made it

it should have been you!



I know who I'm looking for

but I don't believe my eyes

The sight of you with your head hung low

is a sick, sad suprise

Why do you hang back now?

why d'you hesitate?

How dare you throw it all away then tell me

aw man it must be fate



Out of all of the people

that I ever knew

There had to one I could believe in

and it should have been you!



A gift that dies is a tragic thing

and it happens all the time

But a gift that's wasted, thrown to hell is the

worst of stupid crimes!

I saw you hang back now!

I watched you hesitate!

You're a well respected man, but bullshit!

you could've been great!



Out of all the people

I ever knew

There should have been one

and it should have been you!



I spent my whole life

looking for someone like you!
