Lyric It should have been you

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!
