lyrics

Oh Well, There Goes That Dream

I was so darned ready when it came around this time
and I was just sure that this was
my turn to finally shine.
With my best foot forward, it all looked like a safe bet,
all I needed was that one big chance
and I’d be set.
But sometimes things have a way of coming apart at the seam
as it did at the last moment;
oh well, there goes that dream.

I guess, years from now, this’ll all seem funny in some way
thinking how I put out all that energy
that my life would fall into play.
All the promises built on too many ifs that failed time and again,
but to me it was never about an, “if”
it was only a question of when.
And now it’s over and I’m back to being the one-man team
just like it was yesterday;
oh well, there goes that dream.
