A prima donna or a debutante, you say |
|
A first offender, you had your chance, and you threw it away |
|
So why don't you just get on your pony |
|
And ride out somewhere where you can be lonely |
|
All by yourself, instead of tellin' me |
|
Here we are, and we never get very far |
|
Things are never as you say they are |
|
And you'd rather be somewhere else in time |
|
Anywhere, well you don't mind |
|
The legal tender was the motive for your shame |
|
You knew the truth, but never took the blame, you knew it was wrong |
|
But never one to open your heart |
|
You held it inside till it tore you apart |
|
And you couldn't go on, and now you're tellin' me |
|
Here we are, and we never get very far |
|
Things are never as you say they are |
|
And you'd rather be somewhere else in time |
|
Anywhere, well you don't mind |
|
Waiting on a miracle, waiting on a miracle |
|
Waiting on a miracle, wasting all your time |
|
Under pressure till it got the best of you |
|
False images, silhouettes, the old and the new |
|
Nothing ventured, there's nothing gained |
|
You take your chance, it may never come again |
|
Then throw it away, and don't go tellin' me |
|
Here we are, and we never get very far |
|
Things are never as you say they are |
|
And i'd rather be somewhere else in time |
|
Anywhere, well i don't mind |
|
Waiting on a miracle, waiting on a miracle |
|
Waiting on a miracle, wasting all your time |
|
It's alright, right right, we're gonna shine all night long |
|
It's alright, we're right right, we're gonna shine all night long |
|
It's alright, we're right right, we're gonna shine all night long |
