Just because I didn’t win My plan it hasn’t changed, all that much The disc still spins where the needle’s been Just because I didn’t win Those guitars get turned into violins Just because I didn’t win This doesn’t mean I didn’t really win Just till now, I didn’t win See those records stacked up in the corner In the order of when they were played From that we can retrace the moment Of when the those mistakes were made Just because I didn’t win There’s still music playing out in the street I’ll be just one more person listening Just because I didn’t win No needle blocking out the sun and wind Just because I didn’t win I let it all come splashing in Just because I failed to win Sometimes I have confused the cover From rush of the moment that played And oh those songs might be lost forever Or until they're discovered again Just because I didn’t win This place still has electricity The amp and speakers set in front of me Just because I didn’t win In a box that it came packaged in Just because I didn’t win I found a record of a loves begin Just because I didn’t win
