I waited for you
You never showed
You went away
Now we'll never know
Chorus:
If I go I'll wish I stayed
When I'm here I am away
But it's the price we'll have to pay
Just what could've been someday!
Someday, someday, someday
We'll never know
Paper hair and lipstick soil
Future lies in our control
A rubber face a plastic smile
For you I'd wait all this time
Magazines and beauty queens
As I wait I'll pour my sugar
