The One Who Stayed and the One Who Left (Bonus Track) - Regina Spektor[00:00:00]
Written by:Regina Spektor[00:00:02]
He went to visit an old old friend[00:00:23]
And it was long long overdue[00:00:27]
And though they stayed up very late[00:00:31]
They never talked out of turn or tune[00:00:35]
And every time they'd say goodbye[00:00:39]
Well he'd just stay another while[00:00:43]
They started from a distant place[00:00:47]
And were so happy face to face[00:00:52]
The one who left wanted everything[00:01:01]
The one who stayed never wanted more[00:01:04]
It's not your choice it's how you're built[00:01:08]
It's in a blueprint of your soul[00:01:12]
The one who left he dropped his smile[00:01:17]
And they sat quiet for a while[00:01:21]
Then the one who stayed began to speak[00:01:25]
And in his words he answered why[00:01:29]
I'm just another drop in the bucket[00:01:38]
I'm just another song on a jukebox[00:01:42]
I'm just another face in the crowd[00:01:46]
Another fish in the sea[00:01:50]
Something to being one of the many[00:01:55]
Something to being one in the masses[00:01:59]
Something to being surrounded by others and not alone by yourself[00:02:03]
I never wanted the bright lights and my eyes are much too quiet[00:02:12]
I never wanted them pointing their fingers at me[00:02:21]
Oh no but[00:02:26]
Something to being one of the many[00:02:30]
Something to being one in the masses[00:02:34]
Something to being surrounded by others and not alone by yourself[00:02:39]
The one who left he knew it then[00:02:48]
And he would never doubt again[00:02:52]
He loved this life he loved his friend[00:02:56]
But he'd keep running 'til the end[00:03:00]
All words they said hovered above[00:03:04]
All of the pain all of the love[00:03:08]
They hugged goodbye[00:03:13]
And in his room he sang real quiet to the moon[00:03:14]
Something to being one of the many[00:03:26]
Who get to sing the songs on the jukebox[00:03:30]
Who get to stay awake all night and dream half of the day[00:03:34]
Something to waking up in a new town[00:03:43]
Something to singing songs to a new crowd[00:03:47]
Something to being surrounded by others and not alone by yourself[00:03:51]
I never wanted the bright lights and my eyes are much too quiet[00:04:00]
I never wanted them pointing their fingers at me[00:04:09]
Oh no but[00:04:14]
Something to being one of the many[00:04:19]
Who get to sing the songs on the jukebox[00:04:23]
Who get to stay awake all night and dream half of the day[00:04:27]
Then wake up in a new town[00:04:35]
Just another face in the crowd[00:04:40]
