David Bernstein - He Has Arrived

It was midnight
Dancing city lights surround
He was waiting
To play the only game in town
And he thought of you quite often
As he reached out for the stars
He had arrived
Hoping to be better than before
He had survived
The long goodbyes, the reasons why he had come

Searching
How to look and how to feel
Good connections
Just one more lie to close the deal
And he always heard you calling
Never lost you in the crowd
He had arrived
Hoping to be better than before
He had survived
He came down to win and not to lose you

Now
He's only what he appears to be
Nothing more
Than just the love that you remember long ago
He was out to cure a dream
When he arrived

Home in springtime
Another face without a name
Some confusion
Love's not for three, so who remains
And he put the blame on leaving
Never gave a second thought
He had arrived
Hoping to be better than before
He had survived

When you look into the mirror
Is there someone there you hardly recognize
When you play the music upside down and inside out
Well, do you realize
That the meaning hasn't changed
It's simply rearranged
There's no disguise
Wasn't he the one who held you tight
Wasn't it you who asked him not to leave your side

And it's over
What's the point of alibi's
Doesn't matter
When all the drinks come down to ice
And three's a crowd might beat a pair
But ace is always high
He has arrived
And he's better than before
He has survived
Looks like he has won and you have lost him now
