letra de the place where failure goes - rupert holmes

Loading...

after they laid me in the ground
i flew on the wing
somewhere outside the pearly gates
i heard someone sing
it was a girl i’d seen before
though we’d never met
i asked her name, she said, “it’s yours
how could you forget?”

“i was a girl who appeared in a song
that you wrote when you turned seventeen
i was a failure when i was a single
i died, but you still loved me”

“and this is the place where failure goes
if your dreams won’t die
this is where all your hopes survive
if they’re not a lie
this is where all the might-have-beens
triumph and forgive
this is where all the star-crossed loves
have the chance to live”

i turned around and i saw every dreamer
who gambled it all on the line
every belief that once ended in grief
now was blazing alongside mine

and i’m in the place where failure goes
here for quite some while
here where the games of win or lose
only make us smile
this is my voice beyond the grave
preaching from the past
heaven and h-ll are myths of men
dreams are all that last
