《The People That You Never Get To Love(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] The People That You Never Get To Love - Susannah McCorkle

[00:00:13] You're browsing through a second hand bookstore

[00:00:19] And you see her in non-fiction V through Y

[00:00:27] She looks up from World War Two

[00:00:30] And then you catch her catching you catching her eye

[00:00:40] And you quickly turn away your wishful stare

[00:00:47] And take a sudden interest in your shoes

[00:00:54] If you only had the courage but you don't

[00:00:58] She turns and leaves and you both lose

[00:01:06] And you think about

[00:01:09] The people that you never get to love

[00:01:15] It's not as if you even have the chance

[00:01:23] So many worth a second life

[00:01:26] But rarely do you get a second glance

[00:01:30] Until fate cuts in on your dance

[00:01:51] And you'll see her on a train that you've just missed

[00:01:58] At a bus stop where your bus will never stop

[00:02:04] Or in a passing Buick when you've been pulled over by a traffic cop

[00:02:18] Or you'll share an elevator just you two

[00:02:25] And you'll rise in solemn silence to your floor

[00:02:32] Like the fool you are you get off

[00:02:35] And she leaves your life behind a closing door

[00:02:43] And you think about

[00:02:46] The people that you never get to love

[00:02:53] The poem you intended to begin

[00:03:00] The saddest words that anyone has ever said

[00:03:05] Are "Lord what might have been"

[00:03:09] But noone said you get to win

[00:03:27] Still you're never gonna miss what you don't know

[00:03:35] And you don't know who you'll meet at half past three

[00:03:42] It could be a total stranger who looks something just exactly much like me

[00:03:55] One of the people that you never get to love

[00:04:01] One of the people that you never get to love

[00:04:09] The people that you nver get to love
