We nearly made it

We nearly found the perfect combination

The road was right, we must have read the signs wrong

And now it's all gone



But if we'd made it

Could we be sure that it was for the better

Who could say we would have stayed together

Nothing is certain

In a changing world



Every loser wins

Once the dream begins

In time you'll see, fate holds the key

And every loser knows

The light the tunnel shows

Will shine on you

And all those who knew

That we could make it



But suddenly we seemed to stop and lose our way

But did it really matter anyway

For that was yesterday

And we must live for now 



Cos every loser wins

Once the dream begins

In time you'll see, fate holds the key 

And every loser knows 

The light the tunnel shows

Will shine on you

And all those who knew

That we could make it



Stand up and count me

I know your on my side

shine down on me 

And those who believe

That we could make it
