lyrics

There's noone there to choose for you
how to live your life for you
how to know what's right for you
and when to stay the night for you
There's noone there to choose for you
there to speak the truth for you

There's nothing more to proove for you
that you're alright with anything
you've taken on the world before
to show them that you're one of them
And though to like to think that you
were the one who went too far
you were just a minor part
you were the ripples on the water's edge
bouncing on the shore

You were the ripples on the water's edge
bouncing on the shore
it happened long ago
someone threw that stone
way before you were born
There's noone there to choose for you
there to speak the truth for you
there to loose this blues for you
you were the ripples on the water's edge
bouncing on the shore
