I was always a sideline player if I even made the team but me and that ball in that driveway were the best of friends I watched my brother grow up to be over six feet tall just when he had the chance he got bored and put down the ball but I never got bored no, I just gave up I knew it was never going to happen so I stopped and now each Saturday me and some other guys play Songtexte and talk of how good we were when we were young This is not a ball game it's not a school play it's not a book that lets you bend a page this is the one life these are the passing days I don't want to look back and see I've wasted Mark and I started a band back in high school 'cause we thought it might make us cool we did Tom Petty and the Eagles James Taylor and U2 we got a record deal, but you know how that went the records didn't sell and the money got spent and we were five guys now grown up, couldn't pay the rent and I kept playing guitar but somewhere I just gave up I knew it was never going to happen so I guess I stopped but I stayed close enough to the things I want and my good friends tell me that's not enough and I'm starting to think they might be right and I've got children and bills to pay so show me what to hold and what is in the way (Thanks to heavensmetal for these lyrics) Aus Songtexte Mania
