- She was a friend of a friend of mine, I noticed her and she passed me by, she didn't even look me in the eye I've tried to think of things to say, bought some wine, but she looked away, I didn't even talk to her that night For a while I thought I stood a chance, when she smiled so sweet For a while I thought I'd figured her out, that we were meant to be But she said "no, no, no", she just said "no, no" She said "no, no, no" People put me in my place, I felt the door slam in my face, spent a long time standing in the rain I've been on the losing end, all my dreams seem just pretend, once or twice thought, I would go insane For a while I swore I stood a chance. That I was back on my feet For a while I had figured it out. That it was meant to be But they said "no, no, no" they just said "no, no". They said "no, no, no" No, they said "no, no, no" they just said "no, no". They said "no, no, no" "No, no, no!" "No, no, no!" "No, no, no!" "No, no, no!" Funny how your worst mistake, Can lead you to your lucky break, It only made me who I am today All the while always stood a chance, I was asleep on my two feet Took a while to figure it out, to see the forest for the trees And now I know, know, know And now I know, and now I know, know, know And now I know, know, know And now I know, and now I know, know, know Know, know, know know and now I know know, know, know Know, know, know know and now I know know, know, know
