I NEVER HAD A CHANCE WITH YOU
(Dan Mitchell)


Mason Dixon - 1984
Patsy Cole - 1989



You're walking out on me, oh, so casually
You're acting like we never did exist
Baby, I don't mind, we've had our good times
I'll be the first one to admit

That I never had a chance with you
He was always on your mind
I was someone who came along
When your heart was killin' time

Oh, but I have no regrets
I gave you my best
And I'm man enough to face the truth
I never, never had a chance with you

Oh, girl, before you leave, there's just one last thing
Remember next time he gets you down
You can count on me for the tenderness you need
And maybe I can turn your love around

But I never had a chance with you
He was always on your mind
I was someone who came along
When your heart was killin' time

Oh, but I have no regrets
I gave you my best
And I'm man enough to face the truth
I never, never had a chance with you

Oh, I never had a chance with you
He was always on your mind
I was someone who came along
When your heart was killin' time

Oh, but I have no regrets
I gave you my best
And I'm man enough to face the truth
I never, never had a chance with you
