The Main Event

Arriving in the stand
Wet ticket in your hand
It's only made of paper

Promises again
Etched in vain
But nothing more than vapour

The main event is fate
Its running late
But who can wait

So - the stage is set
The weather's wet
But it's too late
There was no-one at the gate
To meet you

Filled up with hope
Just a dope
Who doesn't know no better

Double compromise
Through my eyes
You simply went and let her

The main event is fate
Its running late
But who can wait

So - the stage is set
The weather's wet
But it's too late
There was no-one at the gate
To meet you
