A Minor Detail Lyrics

Step up to the plate to play the game
Save yourself and quit to play it safe

Step up to the plate to play the game
Save yourself and quit to play it safe
And the boy's got skills, the girl's got notion
He's smart enough but he lacks devotion
Your reasons rhyme but your rhymes keep scheming
That's not enough so just keep on dreaming alone
And I know you'll never make it on your own

And I know you'll never get it right
You only take this so far
Then leave it all behind
So tonight I'm making up my mind
Before we take this too far and leave it all behind

So rise up to the occasion
Cause you're all excuse
With no explanation
You've got minor details
Filling major gaps in your memory
So just trace your footsteps
Back to where this all started
Before you got yourself
Broken-hearted
Now just keep your head down
Cause you'll never figure it out
And I know you'll never get it right
You only take this so far
Then leave it all behind
So tonight I'm making up my mind
Before we take this too far and leave it all behind
Yeah, I'll miss you when I'm gone
I'll sing you a sad song tonight
And I'll miss you when I'm gone
I'll sing you a sad song

One more chance to get this right
One more chance to get it right
One more chance to get this right
But you'll never get it right

I know you'll never get it right
You only take this so far
Then leave it all behind
So tonight I'm making up my mind
You know you make this so hard to leave it all behind

Step up to the plate to play the game
Save yourself and quit to play it safe
