Passenger Birds That Flew And Ships That Sailed Lyrics

[Chorus]
I always want what I can't get
It's always close but not quite yet
For the most part I forget
What I wanted anyway
I always see the things I'm not
And look right past the things I've got
For the most part I forgot
What I wanted anyway

[Verse 1]
I think of all the things I've done
What I do and what's to come
Of all the choices that I made
The chances that I didn't take
Of all the dreams that tried and failed
Birds that flew and ships that sailed
Of all the love that's lived and died
Makes me wonder why I
[Chorus]
Always want what I can't get
It's always close but not quite yet
For the most part I forget
What I wanted anyway
I always see thе things I'm not And look right past the things I've got
For the most part I forgot
What I wantеd anyway

[Verse 2]
I think of all the folks I've known
How they've changed and how they've grown
Some are flying through the sky
Some are sinking like stones
Of all the memories I keep
Locked away and buried deep
Of all the times I've laughed and cried
Makes me wonder why I

[Chorus]
Always want what I can't get
It's always close but not quite yet
For the most part I forget
What I wanted anyway
I always see the things I'm not
And look right past the things I've got
For the most part I forgot
What I wanted anyway
What I wanted anyway
What I wanted anyway
What I wanted anyway
