Lyrics
NEVER FINISHED ANYTHING
Sam Cooper, Rick Stewart ©2014

She never eats the last bite on her plate,
And if she tries to stay up late,
She can't stay awake till the movie's over.
She never puts away all her shoes,
Sways those hips past the end of the tune,
Library books always overdue in all the time I've known her.
She never finished anything.
Chorus
Songs are wrote about it, boy meets girl, they fall in love,
Drifting separate ways and never had that final kiss.
Buried feelings deep inside, we thought we had enough,
But I'll always wonder what we missed.
Glad we're happy, but we never said goodbye.
We never finished anything.
Both our lives have rearranged,
She's still the same, she hasn't changed,
Ran into her last week, while she was just a memory.
Can't let it show that she still gets to me.
We never finished anything.
Repeat chorus
Bridge
My life was going fine, I didn't know I was addicted,
No way we could predict it, everything turned out so twisted.
Final chorus
Songs are wrote about it, boy meets girl, they fall in love,
Drifting separate ways and never had that farewell kiss.
Buried feelings deep inside, we thought we had enough,
But I'll always wonder what we missed.
Glad we're happy, but we never said goodbye.
We didn't finish anything.
She didn't finish anything.
I didn't finish anything.
We never finished anything.
