"You Never Gave Me The Chance" lyrics - SHEENA EASTON

A stranger here
I'm gone before
My broken heart
Runs through the open door

And finally the end of all
I once believed was sure
I don't know anymore that
I did when we started all this
When I was not prepared
For such a first kiss

You never gave me the chance to love you
I never should have tried
You never gave me the chance to love you
I wasted all that time

And all I know now is now it's over
Finally the end of all
I once believed was sure
And baby, finally I give you up
Suddenly you're left to love

Kindness tried
But failed to warm
And comfort me
With the way it never was

And every time
I felt your arms I knew I couldn't die
I'm sorry I don't mean to cry
But I keep saying all the wrong things
I must stop it now
I know I can't win

You never gave me the chance to love you
I never should have tried
You never gave me the chance to love you
I wasted all that time

And all I know now is now it's over
Finally the end of all
I once believed was sure
And baby, finally I give you up
Suddenly you're left to love

You never gave me the chance to love you
