Things You’ve Never Done

[Verse 1]
When you were younger
Blue eyed boy wonder
Never used to ponder
On what life may hide
Now that you're older
The nights are so much colder
Never even told her
How you feel inside

[Pre-Chorus]
You were so proud
With your head up in the white clouds
She'd call you so loud
But you'd never know
Now that you're wiser
You'd never compromise her
Everyday you'd realize her
But this bird has flown

[Chorus]
And you've blown out all your candles
One by one
And you curse yourself for things you've never done

[Verse 2]
She would wait for you
Idolize, adore you
Love and reassure you
You couldn't let it be
You let it linger
Slip on through your fingers
So that September
She moved across the sea

[Pre-Chorus]
How your face dropped
And how your heart stopped
Sitting at the bus stop
When they told you that she'd gone
So you run to the harbor
Need to tell her that you love her
As the boat dissapears
You've never felt so alone

[Chorus]
And you've blown out all your candles
One by one
And you curse yourself
For things you've never done

[Second Chorus]
And where were you
When her hour of need
Had come?
Now you curse yourself
For things you've never done

[Bridge]
Now your grandson
Blonde haired
Blue eyed, handsome
Calls you up from London
Sits and asks you why
So your answer
Don't be scared of failure
For the only failure
Is never to try
Never to try
Never to try
Never to try

[Second Chorus]
And where were you
When her hour of need
Had come?
And you curse yourself
For things you've never done
