Waterboys - It Should Have Been You Lyrics
Can I believe my ears?Is this really you?Pacing the floor with one eye on the doorWatching the winners go throughWhy do you hang back now?Why dyou hesitate?You fires dont burnFor he who waitsOut of all of the peopleThat I ever knewIf one should have made itIt should have been you!I know who Im looking forBut I dont believe my eyesThe sight of you with your head hung lowIs a sick, sad supriseWhy do you hang back now?Why dyou hesitate?How dare you throw it all away then tell meAw man it must be fateOut of all of the peopleThat I ever knewThere had to one I could believe inAnd it should have been you!A gift that dies is a tragic thingAnd it happens all the timeBut a gift thats wasted, thrown to hell is theWorst of stupid crimes!I saw you hang back now!I watched you hesitate!Youre a well respected man, but bullshit!You couldve been great!Out of all the peopleI ever knewThere should have been oneAnd it should have been you!I spent my whole lifeLooking for someone like you!
