A Chance Not Taken

A chance not taken
I waited too long
All hopes are forsaken
Now you are gone

You said I didn't
Show you enough
How much I liked you
Now you called my bluff

Spinning in circles
Questioning fate
One word too much
Now it's too late

On top of the world
I thought you were mine
Now down in the dumps
No, I'm not fine

A chance not taken
It's all my fault
Can we awaken
A love from the vault?
