Lyrics

[00:14.770] You should've been there
[00:17.090] Should've burst through the door
[00:19.070] With that 'baby I'm right here' smile
[00:22.230] And it would've felt like
[00:24.340] A million little shining stars had just aligned
[00:29.319] And I would've been so happy
[00:33.179]
[00:37.519] Christmas lights glisten
[00:39.669] I've got my eye on the door
[00:41.769] Just waiting for you to walk in
[00:45.019] But the time is ticking
[00:47.589] People ask me how I've been
[00:49.790] As I come back through my memory
[00:52.369] How you said you'd be here
[00:59.909] You said you'd be here
[01:06.990]
[01:07.049] And it was like slow motion
[01:11.649] Standing there in my party dress
[01:15.139] In red lipstick
[01:19.109] With no-one to impress
[01:22.919] And they're all laughing
[01:26.979] As I'm looking around the room
[01:30.659] But there's one thing missing
[01:34.539] And that was the moment I knew
[01:38.319]
[01:53.539] And the hours pass by
[01:55.779] Now I just wanna be alone
[01:57.789] But your close friends always seem to know
[02:00.899] when there's something really wrong
[02:03.500] So they follow me down the hall
[02:08.520] And there in the bathroom
[02:11.600] I try not to fall apart
[02:13.110] And the sinking feeling starts
[02:15.020] As I say hopelessly
[02:16.780] "He said he'd be here."
[02:22.360]
[02:23.220] And it was like slow motion
[02:28.160] Standing there in my party dress
[02:31.220] In red lipstick
[02:35.170] With no-one to impress
[02:39.220] And they're all laughing
[02:43.090] And asking me about you
[02:46.620] But there's one thing missing
[02:50.160] And that was the moment I knew
[02:55.000]
[02:55.650] What do you say
[02:57.140] When tears are streaming down your face
[02:58.910] In front of everyone you know?
[03:02.080] And what do you do when the one
[03:05.400] Who means the most to you
[03:06.780] Is the one who didn't show?
[03:11.940]
[03:16.550] You should've been here
[03:23.600] And I would've been so happy
[03:28.220]
[03:30.660] And it was like slow motion
[03:36.890] Standing there in my party dress
[03:39.810] In red lipstick
[03:44.310] With no-one to impress
[03:47.530] And they're all standing around me singing
[03:52.210] Happy Birthday to you
[03:56.300] But there's one thing missing
[03:59.870] And that was the moment I knew
[04:03.380]
[04:04.200] Ooh, I knew.
[04:18.590]
[04:18.870] You call me later
[04:20.690] And say I'm sorry I didn't make it
[04:22.910] And I say I'm sorry too
[04:26.200] And that was the moment I knew
[04:30.270]
[04:32.110]
