lyrics

How could I throw away the thing that was the thing I always wanted?
If I wanted it so bad, how could I throw it all away?
Give away a dream that was the dream I always hoped for?
If I hoped for it so bad, how could I give it all away?

You are a superstar. You ought to win a prize.
A friend to everyone, with sunshine in your eyes.
The people gathered around and shouted, "We believe."
I looked around and wished that I could leave.

How could I?

Another baby born. The nation is amazed.
Another miracle, a perfect sleeping face.
The people ooh’d and aah’d. I just stood and stared
And tried to figure out why they would care.

How could I?

Did I create a problem where it wasn’t real?
Are there emotions I’m not good enough to feel?
Was I not strong enough to give in and believe?
Or was there something only I could see?

How could I?
