Nothing Started, Nothing Gained ©2019 Kenny Selcer, BMI
Nothing started, nothing gained, I’m out here in the pouring rain. Looking left, I’m looking right, I’m out here in the dead of night. I spend all my time worrying about you. I wonder if what we say is really true. I don’t know why I feel this way. I do know that i want to stay. Going up and then I’m down, first I smile then I frown. I spend all my time thinking about you. I wonder what in the world I’m going to do. Snap your fingers I’m in a spell, pick me up from where i fell Wake and save me from this dream. I’m sure you know just what I mean. Nothing’s changed about how I feel, I want to know what is real. Give me back the time I’ve wasted. It’s about time that I’ve faced it. I love you, I love you. I should have known what I was doing. I should have seen what was brewing. I would have said a little more, there were things I ignored. I will always feel I was wrong. I will always feel I took too long. Stand up straight, I know I can, think hard and long and make a plan. Another night in an empty house, it is quieter than a mouse. Like all the times that went before, restless so I pace the floor. I’ve put too much in to stop now. I will have to get to you somehow. I love you. Can’t find the words to tell you anything. I want to show you everything. Now I can see just who we are. I can’t go back, we’ve come too far. Dust has settled, what remains? Nothing changes, it’s all the same. It’s all good, nothing bad. Did not see what I had. Spent all my time thinking about you I wonder what in the world I’m going to do? Nothing started, nothing gained, I’m out here in the pouring rain. Looking left, I’m looking right, I’m out here in the dead of night. I spend all my time worrying about you. I wonder if what we say is really true. but I love you, I love you. |
Why Did You Have to Go Away? ©2020 Kenny Selcer, BMI
I’m sitting here by myself, alone in an empty room Can’t wait ‘till this night is done, won’t be over none to soon. Time is movin’ slow for me, Why did you have to go away? You know it feels so strange, it was an instant change One moment you were talking to me, & you were there for me to see. Now I’m starin’ at these 4 walls, why did you have to go away? I’m waiting for your call, I know won’t ever come I’m feelng numb inside, I’m feeling overcome I don’t who I am, without you by my side Doesn’t feel like there’s any tomorrow. Now there’s no one home, I know you had to roam There’s no more you and me, no more you for me to see Time is movin’ way too slow, why did you have to go away? I know it’s very real, feels like I’ll never heal I’ll miss the times we had, it makes me mad and sad. That I’ll never have you near, why did you have to go away? Your picture’s by my bed, it’s playing with my head I dream about you at night, and nothing seems alright I look for your embrace, I look to touch your face What I find is nothing but sorrow I’m sitting here by myself, alone in an empty room Can’t wait ‘till this night is done, won’t be over none too soon. Time is movin’ slow for me, Why did you have to go away? |
