I Had My Chance
Midnight: now I get to turn into the pumpkin
I tried to dress as a man for a while.
Jack-knife: with a little cut, this Jack-o-lantern
Gets to wear his idiot smile.
[Chorus]
But baby, I thought I heard you say this could get ugly -
Telling me as though I don't already know.
Baby, I couldn't give away the shadow of the thing we called romance.
I know I had my chance.
How I wish I could erase the question mark that's waiting
At the end of every caress.
Now I know the phrase too late's an understatement,
So I'll smile and confess ...
[Chorus]
If love could save us, wouldn't we be saved?
If tears could save us, wouldn't we be saved?
If doubt could save us, wouldn't we be saved?
[Chorus]
