It's A Shame

(album: Trouble In Mind - 2008)

The time has come, there is no second chance
We've been drifting on an empty aching sea
You were the girl I never knew I wanted
I was the boy you hoped you'd never see

And it's a shame that we ain't lovers
We could have been something so big and grand
Just kissing for hours underneath that sweet magnolia
Begging for answers, trying to make a stand

Been burning up the hours, talking to the midnight
Just dreaming of ways I could hold you next to me
But maybe it just wasn't meant, all things have a reason
Maybe our hearts were just to careless and free

There was a time, when you would have had me
There was a time I could have had you
But it's too late, another path has come and gone again
I'm at the back door with a broken window view thinking

I'm tired of writing but I can't put down my pen
It's too late now to talk or turn back
So just hold on, cause baby here we go again
Heading the wrong way down that one way track
