Jon Anderson - Betcha lyrics

rate me

It was the perfect opportunity<br />

Looking at your quick mistakes<br />

So yo u finally went and did it<br />

You screamed and ran away<br />

It was the perfect chance<br />

The mystery school<br />

It's all for beginners<br />

How we knew it then<br />

But that didn't mean a thing<br />

So we stacked our promises<br />

To the mothers of invention<br />

Then yo u chased the spiral dream<br />

Wit hthe brothers of time<br />

So you gave your heart of hearts<br />

To the sisters of the union<br />

You were left so high and dry<br />

Just give it up<br />

Just give a little time<br />

Betcha never thought<br />

You'd make<br />

Betcha never thought<br />

You'd see the light of day<br />

Betcha never thought<br />

You'd make it<br />

<br />

You were dancing faster all the time<br />

Living life so down and out<br />

But it was so magnificent<br />

You couldn't leave it all alone<br />

So you chased your dreams<br />

When they sing to you, "Bon jour"<br />

It's the perfect dream<br />

But that didn't mean a thing<br />

Something tells me you know who you are<br />

You just make believe it all<br />

Something tells me you were<br />

Just waiting for that perfect time<br />

See this reality<br />

It's the mother of invention<br />

You can spin the spiral dream<br />

Sister, brother, sister of time<br />

CHORUS<br />

Betcha never thought<br />

You'd make it<br />

Betcha never thought<br />

You'd see the light of day<br />

Betcha never thought<br />

You'd have it in your pocket<br />

Just catch you when you're falling<br />

CHORUS<br />

Just catch you when you're falling, falling<br />

CHORUS<br />

Betcha never thought you'd make it<br />

You'd make it<br />

It was the perfect opportunity<br />

Just looking at your quick mistakes<br />

So yo u finally went and did it<br />
