Champs - Never saw it coming

[verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
I never was an island, I never had a war
Never saw the light of an open door
I never had a lover, I never saw her 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

[post-Chorus]
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

[verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
I never was an island, I never had a war
Never saw the light of an open door
I never had a lover, I never saw her 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

[post-Chorus]
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

[bridge]
Say you don't, don't hate to touch my love
Can you keep your head up?
Past light, passed the night so long
Can you keep your head up?
Say you don't, don't hate to touch
Can you keep your head up?
Past light, passed the night so long

[outro]
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 in
Never had a chance to wear it often
I never took a minute to lay it on you
Never saw the starlight pushing on through
I never was an island, I never had a war
Never saw the light of an open door
I never was an island, I never had a war
Never saw the light of an open door
I never had a lover, I never saw her 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.
