Long is your drive, the heat is a rising, and it's a wonder you remember my name
The signal fades, the sun's burning down, and it's not like you're just hangin' around
Oh, can't slow down.
'Cause I know you never really had the chance to ever love me right,
Oh, and I know I never really opened up my arms, I'd like to try.
And I know you never had the chance, baby,
Victim of a circumstance, ah ha.

I know you never had, I know you never had, I know you never had the chance.

The wait is long, but I'm long gone,
When your picture's barely holding your face,
The words you said, what goes unsaid,
And your girlfriend don't want me your friend,
Oh, I can't slow down.
Cause I know you never really had the chance to ever love me right,
And I know I never opened up my arms, I'd like to try

Oh, and I know you never had the chance, baby,
Victim of a circumstance, ah ha.
I know you never had, I know you never had, I know you never had the chance.
I know you never had the chance, baby,
Victim of a circumstance, ah ha.
I know you never had, I know you never had, I know you never had the chance.

Oh, and I never loved you right, no,
Oh, oh, and I'd like to try, try, try, try.
Know you never, know you never, never had the chance.
Know you never, know you never, never had the chance.
Know you never, know you never, and I'd like to try, try, try.
