The Chance I Didn't Take

There was once a chance I didn't take,
and it still haunts me in my dreams.
A moment to be happy,
is not just a chance I didn't take.

There was once a chance I didn't take.
I remember it now, a moment of beauty.
Your hand in mine,
and the chance I didn't take.

There was once a choice I couldn't make.
One to run away, with you.
You looked at me, eyes full of hope.
But you gave me a choice I couldn't make.

There was once a choice I couldn't make.
It was a choice I should have made.
I let the moment pass us by.
It was the choice I couldn't make.

You gave me a chance I didn't take.
Your eyes full of sorrow.
I can still feel your heart break
because of that chance I didn't take.
