15 Minutes

(album: Do You Know - 2004)

[VERSE 1:]
Through all the things I never said and did
Through memories and passageways I'd long since hid
One ordinary life is somehow changed
I can't explain

For all the wounds, the longing scars and pain
There's a picture of a broken dream somehow re-framed
One ordinary life somehow exchanged
I'm born again
Don't understand

[CHORUS:]
It should've been me left standing out in the pouring rain
All of my hopes and dreams burned up in a burst of flame
And it should have been a once in a lifetime
I'm still here wondering why
And here you come again

[VERSE 2:]
Now looking back through time and space and dreams
The image of your love and grace I've often seen
And knowing now what I could not know then
This was your plan

And still sometimes I bow my head in shame
Desperate in my longing just to speak your name
And finally I'm resolved to simply trust you
And here you come again
I just don't understand

[CHORUS]
It could've been me left out there wandering aimlessly
Running here, running there, with no place to be
And I should have been a one-hit wonder 15 minutes of fame
With nothing gained and nothing left to lose
My only chance was you
And here you come again
