What You Could've Won Songtext
von Milburn

It′s closing time and it's getting late
Can you fetch my coat? ′Cause I don't feel too great, anymore
But I want to stay
Oh, don't you want to stay as well?

I don′t think that you do
I′ve got this funny feeling that you don't feel like I do
This conversation′s just passing you by
I know it, I can see it in your eyes

You've had one too many low and behold
You′re telling the secrets that can't be told
You feel so special, it feels so bold
But then you knock me back and I fall
I fall to the floor

And all I wanted was a kiss
All I wanted was a chance tonight

I′m walking home, I've pissed and I'm frozen
My mind′s been warmed up by that little token of you
In your little ways
Still they′re sleeping in your bed today


And now beeps the phone
I fumble 'round to answer but I end up putting it on hold
Late night taxis keep passing me by
I feel sick and look to the sky

I′ve had one too many low and behold
The late night lovers stay out in the cold
I ring your number, I feel so bold
You kick me into touch and I fall
I fall to the floor

But all I wanted was a kiss
But all I wanted was a chance tonight
But yeah, your ignorance was bliss
Yeah, your ignorance was paradise

So just give me a chance
Just give me a sign or something
To tell me what you want
'Cause before too long there′ll be somebody else's
It′s then that you'll know that you wanted more
You call out my name but I fail to respond
Now it knocks you back and you fall
You fall to the floor


You're not just a number
Upon a computer
Or a waiting list

You′re not just a number
Upon a computer
Or a shopping list
