Waiting In The Wings

I wasn't born a king

Was born to simple things

That made me strong

But I'm forever wondering

How it might have been

If my number was drawn

At times I feel my time's already gone

When time won't ever wait to carry on

But I'm waiting in the wings

Trying hard to see where I've went wrong

I'm standing here looking on

To a stage made up of dreams

While somebody else sings my favorite songs

But I know when that spotlight shines down on

Me It won't burn out

But for now

I'm waiting in waiting in the wings

I'm waiting in the wings

I'm waiting for the fog

To clear from the field of my made up flaws

When fame has greeted all my friends

And left me with resentment and fake applause Down and out my money burns like trees

But I know the rain will fall eventually

And I'm waiting in the wings

Trying hard to see where I've went wrong

I'm standing here looking on

To a stage made up of dreams

While somebody else sings

My favorite songs

But I know when that spotlight shines down on me It won't burn out

But for now

I'm waiting in waiting in the wings

I'm waiting in the wings
