Lyrics
I guess there’s nothing to do And nothing to say,
But simply go on my way
And call it a day.
I guess I’m ready to go Right back on the shelf,
Because at last I’ve learned
Where you’re concerned,
I’ve just been fooling myself.
I never had a chance,
I thought you cared for me,
But now I see I never had a chance.
I never had a chance.
Though you never told me so,
Somehow I know I never had a chance.
I knew we’d have to part,
For I could always reach your lips
But I could never reach your heart.
My dream about romance
Ended in a friendly chat.
But more than that,
I never had a chance.
I never had a chance,
I thought you cared for me,
But now I see I never had a chance.
I never had a chance.
Though you never told me so,
Somehow I know I never had a chance.
I knew we’d have to part,
For I could always reach your lips
But I could never reach your heart.
My dream about romance
Ended in a friendly chat.
But more than that,
I never had a chance.
