when we were together i was blown away
just like paper from a fan
but you would act like i was just a kid
like we were never gonna last

now i've got someone who cares for me
he wrote my name in silver sands
i think you know you've lost the love of your life
and you said i was the best you've ever had

because i'm in demand
you're thinking of the way you shoulda held my hand
and all the times you said you didn't understand
you never had our love written in your plans
but now i'm in demand

don't ever think you saw the best in me
there's a side you'll never know
cos love and loving are too different things
set your sites far too low

now i've got someone who cares for me
he wrote my name in silver sands
i think you know you've lost the love of your life
and you said i was the best you've ever had

because i'm in demand
you're thinking of the way you shoulda held my hand
and all the times you said you didn't understand
you never had our love written in your plans
but now i'm in demand

you're thinking of the way you shoulda held my hand
and all the times you said you didn't understand
you never had our love written in your plans
but now i'm in demand

it's only when i fall asleep
i see that winning smile
when my dreams just move along
you've lost the race by miles

yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah 
never had our love written in your plans 
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

because i'm in demand
you're thinking of the way you shoulda held my hand
and all the times you said you didn't understand
you never had our love written in your plans
but now i'm in demand

you know i'm in demand
you see i'm in demand
you know i'm in demand
you know i'm in demand
you never had our love written in your plans

you know i'm in demand
you see i'm in demand
you need me in demand
you want me in demand
