Next Big Thing lyrics

Oh everybody said she was the next big thing

The shining little light on the Saturday night

Dreaming of the day when she could run away

She didn't believe the hype, was right

I knew right from the past

Was never gonna last the feeling's over fast

Now here we go

Now here we go

Can somebody please take me home

Where I can be all alone

Can somebody please take me home

Where I can be all alone

And the tears fall down from your face

And we know beneath the surface there's a trace

A heavy heart that's working through the pain

Please stay in the game

Please stay in the game

Oh everybody said she was the next big thing

The shining little light on the Saturday night

Finally came the day when she did run away

She didn't believe the hype, was right

I knew right from the past

Was never gonna last the feeling's over fast

Now watch her go

Now watch her go

Can somebody please take me home

Where I can be all alone

Can somebody please take me home

Where I can be all alone

And the tears fall down from your face

And we know beneath the surface there's a trace

A heavy heart that's working through the pain

Please stay in the game

And the tears fall down from your face

And we know beneath the surface there's a trace

A heavy heart that's working through the pain

Please stay in the game

And the tears fall down from your face

And we know beneath the surface there's a trace

A heavy heart that's working through the pain

Please stay in the game

Please stay in the game
