Paroles de It's A Shame

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

Chorus
And it's a shame
That we ain't lovers
We could've been something, so big and grand
Just kissin' for hours
underneath that sweet magnolia
Beggin' for answers, tryin' to make a stand

Been burnin' up the hours, talkin' 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 too careless and free

Repeat Chorus

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 thinkin'

Repeat Chorus Headin' the wrong way down that one way track
