Watching from the wings Lyrics

I remember those nice words you used to say

Then you'd wrap them up in paper and throw them all away

Only you were subject to the thoughts and doubts you had

But we all know that you're not bad.

You would leave a friend some flowers when they were feeling blue

And when they telephoned to thank you, you said it wasn't you

You can hide and stand aside whilst others bathe in light

But you just keep friends with night.

So many people plagiarise, stealing truth and telling lies

Others seem to close their eyes, but you're the one we recognise.

You will never take the credit for all the things you've done

And if you even get a mention then you'd just up and run

It's all the rage to be on stage, you're chance to dance and sing

But you'll be watching from the wings.

So many people plagiarise, stealing truth and telling lies

Others seem to close their eyes, but you're the one we recognise.
