15 Minutes

Through all the things I never said and did
Through memories and passageways I'd long since hid
One ordinary life is somehow changed
I can't explain, yeah

For all the wounds, the longing scars and pain
There's a picture of a broken dream somehow re-framed
One ordinary life somehow exchanged
I'm born again, don't understand

It should've been me left standin' out in the pourin' rain
All of my hopes and dreams burned up in a burst of flame
And it should have been a once in a lifetime
I'm still here wondering why and here you come again

Now, looking back through time and space and dreams
The image of your love and grace I've often seen
And knowing now what I could not know then
This was your plan, hey

And still sometimes I bow my head in shame
Desperate in my longing just to speak your name
And finally I'm resolved to simply trust you
And here you come again, I just don't understand

It should've been me left standin' out in the pourin' rain
All of my hopes and dreams burned up in a burst of flame
And it should have been a once in a lifetime
I'm still here wondering why and here you come again

It could've been me left out there wandering aimlessly
Running here, running there, with no place to be
And I should have been a one-hit wonder, 15 minutes of fame
With nothin' gained and nothin' left to lose
My only chance was you and here you come again, oh
I just don't understand

And I should have been a one-hit wonder, 15 minutes of fame
With nothin' gained and nothin' left to lose
My only chance was you but here you come again, oh, come again
I just don't understand
