Never Saw It Coming

Look once at the sweet blue sky Don't let it fall on your sweetheart's back I know Take every moment back if you need it Mine locked in so tight to my heart, to my heart, to my heart I never saw it coming I never saw the day I never saw the future slipping away I never took a moment to take it all away Never had a chance to learn a thing I never took a minute to lay it on you Never saw the starlight pushing on through I never was a man, I never had a war Never saw the light of an open door Give me a moment's light I'm gonna do it better Give me a moment's light And then I'll do it better There's a star at the end of my street And I need it, I need it to shine down on you from on high Then I see every moment passing for me Passing at the speed of light Sweet light, sweet light, sweet light I never was a man, I never had a war Never saw the light of an open door I never had a lover, I never saw their face Never had the light of a lover's embrace I never had a dream, I never took the time Now I'm at the end and I'm waiting in line I never made a move, I never took a trip Never saw the whole world getting its grip Give me a moment's light I'm gonna do it better Give me a moment's light And then I'll do it better Say you don't, don't hate to touch my love Can you keep your head up? Pass light, passed the night so long Can you keep your head up? Say you don't, don't hate to touch my love Can you keep your head up? Pass light, passed the night so long I never saw it coming I never saw the day Never saw the future slipping away I never took a moment to take it all away Never had a chance to learn a thing I never took a minute to lay it on you Never saw the starlight pushing on through I never was a man, I never had a war Never saw the light of an open door I never was a man, I never had a war Never saw the light of an open door I never had a lover, I never saw their face Never had the light of a lover's embrace I never had a dream, I never took the time Now I'm at the end and I'm waiting in line I never made a move I never took a trip Never saw the whole world getting its grip
