Lyrics
You could have been the next big thing
Your name in lights, your face in magazines
You could have been something great
But as the saying goes, too little, too late
What would you do to be something special?
What would you do to be someone? (Someone)
What would you do to be something better?
What would you do if you could?
If you could...
Be anything that you wanted to be
What would you be?
For sixty seconds or the rest of time
What would you be?
The silver lining shining in the sky
Slowly fades to grey
They say your number's up, you're past your prime
Have you had your time?
For fifteen years you've been playing this game
Will you ever win?
You could have been the next big thing
Your name in lights, your face in magazines
You could have been something great
But as the saying goes, too little, too late
What would you do to be something special?
What would you do to be someone? (Someone)
What would you do to be something better?
What would you do if you could?
If you could...
