Someone Else Gets the Prize

Still you want to be near him
 As the crowd cheers him on
 'Cause in your heart
 To you he will always belong
 You rocked his cradle, you rocked his cradle
 And you were there long before they opened the door to claim him
 Yeah, you were once a team
 After the same dream
 And you told him, just fight the stars up there, he would rise
 Oh, oh, oh, why (why) does it always turn out
 (Oh) oh (why) why does it always turn out
 Someone else, gets the price?
 Someone else, gets the price
 You sit in the front row
 As you listen to him sing
 But you know, behind the curtain
 Someone's waitin' in the win
 And what did she do? (What did she do?)
 Oh, it should have been you (it should have been you)
 'Cause you stood by his side when he tried to take his first steps
 You rocked his cradle (rocked his cradle)
 When he wasn't able (when he wasn't able)
 You put the feeling inside of him
 You sang his lullaby
 Oh, oh, oh, why (why) does it always turn out
 (Oh) oh (why) why does it always turn out
 Someone else, gets the price?
