You should've been there,
Should've burst through the door,
With that 'baby I'm right here' smile,
And it would've felt like,
A million little shining stars had just aligned,
And I would've been so happy.
Christmas lights glisten,
I've got my eye on the door,
Just waiting for u to walk in,
But the time is ticking,
People ask me how I've been
As I come back through my memory,
How u zei you'd be here,
u zei you'd be here.
And it was like slow motion,
Standing there in my party dress,
In red lipstick,
With no-one to impress,
And they're all laughing,
As I'm looking around the room,
But there's one thing missing,
And that was the moment I knew.
And the hours pass by,
Now I just wanna be alone,
But your close vrienden always seem to know
when there's something really wrong,
So they follow me down the hall,
And there in the bathroom,
I try not to fall apart,
And the sinking feeling starts,
As I say hopelessly,
"He zei he'd be here."
And it was like slow motion,
Standing there in my party dress,
In red lipstick,
With no-one to impress,
And they're all laughing,
And asking me about you,
But there's one thing missing,
And that was the moment I knew.
What do u say
When tears are streaming down your face,
In front of everyone u know?
And what do u do when the one
Who means the most to you,
is the one who didn't show?
u should've been here.
And I would've been so happy.
And it was like slow motion,
Standing there in my party dress,
In red lipstick,
With no-one to impress,
And they're all standing around me singing,
Happy Birthday to you,
But there's one thing missing,
And that was the moment I knew.
Ooh, I knew.
u call me later,
And say I'm sorry I didn't make it.
And I say I'm sorry too,
And that was the moment I knew.
