Lyrics
Such a Shame
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She sleeps alone
without her clothes on,
While I dream of how
things could have been.
She doesn't want me, (She doesn't want me,)
and I don't know why. (and I don't know why.)
I left a message (I left a message)
in the midnight sky, (in the midnight sky,)
But now I know
she'll never find it.
Maybe I'll see (Maybe I'll see)
tomorrow; (tomorrow;)
But for tonight, (But for tonight,)
I know I'm blind. (I know I'm blind.)
It's such a shame
(to want you)
When you can't
(belong to)
Someone else -- (Someone else --)
Such a shame. (Such a shame.)
Aaaa-aaah... (Aaaa-aaah...)
You may be wrong
and I'm not crazy,
Though I admit (Though I admit)
that I'm confused. (that I'm confused.)
I waited patiently; (I waited patiently;)
you walked on by. (you walked on by.)
I had to have you; (I had to have you;)
now I want to die. (now I want to die.)
So there's no way
to justify it.
Maybe I'll see (Maybe I'll see)
tomorrow; (tomorrow;)
But for tonight, (But for tonight,)
I know I'm blind. (I know I'm blind.)
It's such a shame
(to want you)
When you can't
(belong to)
Someone else -- (Someone else --)
Such a shame. (Such a shame.)
Aaaa-aaah... (Aaaa-aaah...)
Aaa-a-a-a-aah... (Aaaaaaah...)
Aaa-a-ooh... (Aaaa-aaaah...)
Such a shame
When you can't
(belong to)
Someone else -- (Someone else --)
(Such a shame.)
It's such a shame
(to want you)
When you can't
(belong to)
Someone else -- (Someone else --)
Such a shame (Such a shame)
(to want you)
When you can't
(belong to)
Someone else -- (Someone else --)
Such a shame. (Such a shame.)
Aaaa-aaaah... (Aaaa-aaaah...)
