Guess we all are born with parts to play
Some of us are stars, and some are just in the way
I know I was meant for gloryBut that′s never what my story brings
And yet I keep on waiting
When you have the passion and the drive
You expect your moment center stage to arrive
I show up with heart a blazing
Ready to achieve amazing things
But I'm left waiting in the wings
I hear my cue
And yet I′m kept there, waiting
Know what to do
And still I stand there, waiting
It's always someone else who sings
While I'm left waiting in the wings
And so I keep on keeping on
My chances come and then I blink and they′re gone
Always overlooked unfairly
While pretending that it barely stings
But it stings, yes it stings
And I′ll shed no tears
I'll only keep on waiting
If no one cheers
Well, I can keep on waiting
Who cares how loud
The silence rings
You′ll find me waiting in the wings
