Once upon a time I thought someone would come along and save us from our inevitable demise but of course, that will never happen. Only we as individuals can control our destinies. Written July 7, 1996
lyrics
Who says nice guys finish last, not me
I think that it’s all in the past
Who said what happened to courtesy not me
I feel its part of our personality
Chorus
Where have all those good guys gone
Did they fade away did they move on
Are they out there ashamed to be strong?
Waiting for another chance in the sun
Some say people are so strange, not me
I think it’s all just a game they play
It’s just so common to betray, not me
I’m not the one to cause you pain in any way
Where have all those good guys gone
Did they fade away, did they move on
Are they out there ashamed to be strong?
Waiting for another chance in the sun
Who says nice guys finish last, not me
I think that it’s all in the past
Who said what happened to honesty, not me
I know there’s hope for you & me
(Chorus 1 more time)
