Meant For Great Things
(Bedford-Pugh)

She was full of booze and China,
on a Sunday afternoon.
she always felt so empty,
Yet she filled the living room.

From an evening at the opera,
To a night out on the town.
Through a mist of many heartaches,
She lifts them up when they are down.

And how-ow long must it take?
Before you get so many knocks, that you finally break,
Out of here, yes it’s clear,
That you were meant for great things.

He was built on disappointment,
His foundation far from sound.
He’d been taped together crudely,
But he hoped his time would come around.

From morning until moonlight,
As a million thoughts take wing.
They hear the cries of pain and happiness,
As all their hearts and heads sing.

And how-ow long must it take?
Before you get so many knocks, that you finally break,
Out of here, yes it’s clear,
That you were meant for great things.

When will we find,
That secret patch we’ll call yours and mine?
And when will we see,
That this whole world could belong to you and me?

And how-ow long must it take?
Before you get so many knocks, that you finally break?

Oh, how-ow long will it take?
Before you get so many knocks, that you finally break,
Out of here, you know it’s clear,
That you were meant for great things.
That you were meant for great things.
That you were meant for great things.
