(Keith Wilson)
Verse 1
Everybody’s living in a dream
everybody’s living in the past
everybody’s living in a world
where nothings built to last
It’s written in the stars
it’s written on the wall
if you read between the lines
we can have it all
Chorus
It couldn’t happen to nicer people
don’t shed a tear
it couldn’t happen to nicer people
it could only happen hear
it could only happen here
Verse 2
Everybody’s falling to their knees
everybody’s living hand to mouth
everybody’s living in the trees
watching birds fly south
It’s written in the stars
it’s written on the wall
it’s written on a dollar bill
the answer to it all
Chorus
It couldn’t happen to nicer people
don’t shed a tear
it couldn’t happen to nicer people
why do they live in fear
why do they live in fear
Verse 3
Everybody’s living in a dream
everybody’s living in the past
everybody’s living in a world
where nothings built to last
It’s written in the stars
it’s written on the wall
it’s written on a dollar bill
the answer to it all
Chorus
It couldn’t happen to nicer people
don’t shed a tear
it couldn’t happen to nicer people
it could only happen hear
It couldn’t happen to nicer people
don’t shed a tear
it couldn’t happen to nicer people
it could only happen hear
It couldn’t happen to nicer people
