Waterdeep - Cowards Never Win lyrics

written by Don Chaffer on 11/21/96 at 23:41 The first day of cla**, they call out your name and you have to reply even if you're shy. And if you choose to pretend you didn't hear They'd think that you weren't there And they'd keep on breathing air without you. CHORUS Cowards never win They're torn up in the wind And everyone forgets to ask their name If you wonder why people don't want to die It's cause they're too scared to deal with their blame If you sit through a wedding now and then You'll feel the heaviness in the room rest on the bride and groom And when they say they understand the vows each one gives a life to become man and wife BRIDGE Every naive dream we have doesn't always please us But up on every cross you bear is the long awaited Jesus The last day of cla** they call out your name And if you don't reply They'll all just wonder why CHORUS Cowards never win But when they feel the wind They get the chance to take a brand new name So don't believe the lie that there's no reason you should try Because there's a way to deal with your blame
