Acoustic Folk Art 4, Track 9, 02:48
Never Could Happens
She stood on that stage
And recited her lines
Others had said
That part should be mine
But this was her moment
Her night to shine
And she made the most
Of that moment in time
There always will be those
Who only say can’t
Hearts there are many
As small as an ant
Another I-told-you-so
Standing there laughin’
There’s always a never-could
Waiting to happen
No one in his family
Had ever stood there
But he knew hard work
They had taught him to care
Come graduation
He climbed up that stair
His momma’s tears
Fell like rain through the air
There always will be those
Who only say can’t
Hearts there are many
As small as an ant
Another I-told-you-so
Standing there laughin’
There’s always a never-could
Waiting to happen
<harmonica break>
Now we have a choice
If we choose to believe
To shake off the lies
And the words that deceive
That moment in time
When life gives you a chance
You can hold up the wall
Or step up and dance
There always will be those
Who only say can’t
Hearts there are many
As small as an ant
Another I-told-you-so
Standing there laughin’
There’s always a never-could
Waiting to happen
There always will be those
Who only say can’t
Hearts there are many
As small as an ant
Another I-told-you-so
Standing there laughin’
There’s always a never-could
Waiting to happen
She stood on that stage
And recited her lines
Others had said
That part should be mine
But this was her moment
Her night to shine
And she made the most
Of that moment in time
There always will be those
Who only say can’t
Hearts there are many
As small as an ant
Another I-told-you-so
Standing there laughin’
There’s always a never-could
Waiting to happen
No one in his family
Had ever stood there
But he knew hard work
They had taught him to care
Come graduation
He climbed up that stair
His momma’s tears
Fell like rain through the air
There always will be those
Who only say can’t
Hearts there are many
As small as an ant
Another I-told-you-so
Standing there laughin’
There’s always a never-could
Waiting to happen
<harmonica break>
Now we have a choice
If we choose to believe
To shake off the lies
And the words that deceive
That moment in time
When life gives you a chance
You can hold up the wall
Or step up and dance
There always will be those
Who only say can’t
Hearts there are many
As small as an ant
Another I-told-you-so
Standing there laughin’
There’s always a never-could
Waiting to happen
There always will be those
Who only say can’t
Hearts there are many
As small as an ant
Another I-told-you-so
Standing there laughin’
There’s always a never-could
Waiting to happen
Song Notes
Our daughters enjoyed participating in drama in high school. A lot of good lessons were learned like working hard with others towards a common goal, but also that sometimes we don't get the part we hoped for and sometimes we do. We enjoyed going to their high school plays and have many good memories. My parents both participated in high school drama as well, but I never did and neither did my wife. I guess it skips a generation.
