kept on waiting for just a little bit more
not getting anywhere...you should've been there
Then I thought I saw you walking by into town
Into the crowd I went chasing you down
When I grabbed your arm...she spun around
a stranger glared...you should've been there
You should've been there
there's always so much to see in this old town
Don't you agree
But then again I never said I'd be anywhere
You should've been there
I saved you a place right by my side
and waited there in the candlelight
But the only friend I had in sight was an empty chair
You should've been there
chorus
