lyrics

I never met the man who turned me down. So I guess I’ll never know. The first punch has been thrown. But you’ve got to walk before you run. So don’t hold back. Cast the first stone. Root for the little guy. He’s trying to make this work. Hope I don’t make it worse. Nothing more or less than what you’d expect. But I must confess: you are so much more. You are never second best, at least to me.
I’ve been wrong. I’ve taken too long. But I wasn’t mistaken when I found you. I’ve been wrong. I’ve taken too long. But I wasn’t mistaken when I found you. She’s been listening. She’s been waiting. She’s been waiting for this moment all along.
I’m not ready to sing this song. But if I don’t, I never will. I was always better with words, but you’re the one who made me mean it. Who’s giving and who’s receiving? Seems you’re the one who chose me. I’ve been trying to lose myself for years. But in the process I have found: that’s not the reason. You can’t change what you once were. You can only fight to keep what’s yours.
I’ve been wrong. I’ve taken too long. But I wasn’t mistaken when I found you. I’ve been wrong. I’ve taken too long. But I wasn’t mistaken when I found you. She’s been listening. She’s been waiting. She’s been waiting for this moment all along.
Swirling around inside my head, the words and this song have always been. Just waiting on the right moment to let them out. You can’t count on anyone but yourself. But I’ve always had you to pick me up and dust me off. Fear is all that’s holding you back. Don’t let it drag you down.
I’ve been wrong. I’ve taken too long. But I wasn’t mistaken when I found you. I’ve been wrong. I’ve taken too long. But I wasn’t mistaken when I found you. She’s been listening. She’s been waiting. She’s been waiting for this moment all along.
I never met the man who turned me down. So I guess I’ll never know. Cast the first stone.
