There's a man who is lonely
|
This could change if he'd only
|
Take a chance and risk stepping outside himself
|
There's a girl he's been seeing
|
From afar he's been dreaming
|
he could have her if he were someone else
|
So he silently awaits
|
A major change in fate
|
A change that comes too late
|
And you're reaching for a star
|
But can you reach that far
|
Standing where you are?
|
The wanting was too much
|
You're longing for her touch
|
It's not within your clutch
|
There's a man who's been thinking
|
To himself he's been dreaming
|
How to build a skyscraper to the stars
|
Now he starts to go to it
|
He's so sure he cand do it
|
Though he's lacking the knowledge of design
|
Now his dream comes crashing around him
|
And tumbles to the sea
|
Along with all he wanted to be
|
A realization strikes him
|
A harsh reality
|
He doesn't know everything
|
When the student tries to teach
|
The knowledge that you seek
|
Lies just outside your reach
|
There's a thirst you have to learn
|
A hunger inside burns
|
Time for the page to turn
|
It's the wanting,It's the hoping,It's the longing
|
There's a flame within your soul
|
To strive to reach your goal
|
But dreaming takes its toll
|
It's nature's own device
|
To grab and roll the dice
|
But each toss has its price
|
Emotions starts to flow
|
Your heart takes control
|
And steers you down the road
|
Your destination is no concern
|
The impulsive never learn
|
Just another bridge to burn
|
It's the wanting,It's the hoping,It's the longing...
|
