Hayes Carll - It's A Shame lyrics

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 have been somethin' 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 dreamin' of ways I could hold you next to me And maybe it just wasn't meant, all things have a reason And maybe our hearts were just to careless and free [Chorus] There was a time, you would have had me There was a time when I could have had you Well it's too late, another path has come and gone again I'm at the back door with a broken window view, thinkin' [Chorus: x2] Trying to make a stand Trying to make a stand Trying to make a stand
