It's a Shame

And it’s a shame that we ain’t lovers
Been burnin’ up the hours, talkin’ to the midnight

I was the boy you hoped you’d never see
And it’s a shame that we ain’t lovers
You were the girl I never knew I wanted

But it’s too late, another path has come and gone again
We could have been somethin’ so big and grand
Beggin’ for answers, tryin’ to make a stand
We could have been somethin’ so big and grand

Just dreamin’ of ways I could hold you next to me
We could have been somethin’ so big and grand
Just kissin’ for hours underneath that sweet magnolia
There was a time I could have had you
I'm at the back door with a broken window view thinkin’
And it’s a shame that we ain’t lovers
There was a time, when you would have had me
And it’s a shame that we ain’t lovers
I'm tired of writin’ but I can’t put down my pen
So just hold on, cause baby, here we go again
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
But maybe it just wasn’t meant, all things have a reason
Just kissin’ for hours underneath that sweet magnolia
Maybe our hearts were just to careless and free
Beggin’ for answers, tryin’ to make a stand

Headin’ the wrong way down that one way track
It’s too late now to talk or turn back
Just kissin’ for hours underneath that sweet magnolia
