i never left a movie before it was over
always had to know how things worked out
sometimes it was worth the wait
other times it was a waste
but i ever left the theatre with a doubt
about what the whole damn thing was about
I know i wont be with you forever
in the front row every night
but my spirit will be watching you everywhere from on high
every chance i get
although i cant always be in your life
you will always be my guiding light
but now ill never know the man who you will marry
ill never know if you danced swan lake
because ive got a date with my own misguided fate
ill never know the road your life will take
i never should have stepped outside the boundaries
i should have kept my distance from the crowd
i should have worn a mask when i was traveling
and opened my umbrella when i saw the clouds
but i was subborn i was stupid now im on the road to ruin
and there is no way to turn this thing around
you are flying high like a bird up in the sky
and i am sinking deep into the ground
ill never know the man who you will marry
ill never know if you danced swan lake
because ive got a date with my own misguided fate
ill never know the road your life will take
and as i leave the movie theatre, my heart breaks
