Lyrics by Shoes
Composed by Jeff Murphy
----------
Play by the rules
And life can be so cruel
Holdin’ on to what has never been again
Some feelings fade
As time slips away
Haunted by the ghost of yesterday today
Hidden hopes you can’t get over
Feeling them again
Maybe now you’ll come around
You’ll let your defenses down
If fates allow
I’ll wait somehow
So maybe now
How long will you wait
It’s bound to come too late
Once it’s gone it won’t be back again ‘til then
Now it’s up to you
It’s time to make a move
Wishful thinking doesn’t make it true for you
Take a chance and see what happens
There’s nothing left to lose
Maybe now you’ll come around
You’ll let your defenses down
If fates allow
I’ll wait somehow
So maybe now
Maybe now you’ll come around
You’ll let your defenses down
If fates allow
I’ll wait somehow
So maybe now
I’ll wait somehow
So maybe now
