I Never Had a Chance 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

Never had a chance

Never had a chance
