Lyrics Michelle Williams

Michelle Williams

15 Minutes

Through all the things I never said and did

Through memories and passageways I'd long since hid

One ordinary life is somehow changed

I can't explain

For all the wounds the longing scars and pain

There's a picture of a broken dream somehow re-framed

One ordinary life somehow exchanged

I'm born again

Don't understand

It should've been me left standin' out in the pourin' rain

All of my hopes and dreams burned up in a burst of flames

And it should have been a once in a lifetime

I'm still here wondering why

And here you come again

Now looking back through time and space and dreams

The image of your love and grace I've often seen

And knowing now what I could not know then

This was your plan

And still somtimes I bow my head in shame

Desperate in my longing just to speak your name

And finally I'm resolved to simply trust you

And here you come again

I just don't understand

It should've been me left standin' out in the pourin' rain

All of my hopes and dreams burned up in a burst of flames

And it should have been a once in a lifetime

I'm still here wondering why

And here you come again

It could've been me left out there wandering aimlessly

Running here running there with no place to be

And I should've been a one-hit wonder

15 minutes of fame

With nothin' gained and nothin' left to lose

My only chance was you

And here you come again

I just don't understand

And I should've been a one-hit wonder

15 minutes of fame

With nothin' gained and nothin' left to lose

My only chance was you

And here you come again
