YOU'VE HAD YOUR CHANCES

©2000 Walter Crockett
From Valerie & Walter Crockett's Emily's Angel on the Big Bark label.

It always makes you angrier to know that you've done wrong
And you cast around so frantically for one to pin it on
Then you turn in my direction and you lock your eyes on mine
But I will not take this fall for you
There's no more one more time

CHORUS:
You've had your chances, now quit while you're behind
No easy answers, no way to melt this heart of mine
You took my love and danced upon it
But you overlooked my pride
You've had your chances
Bye bye

I should have seen it coming in the shadow on your smile
I might have read a message in your military style
That someone looking up to you would have to be put down
But then your world was new to me
Now I've been around

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE:
How can I make it plainer than the writing on the wall
The train has left the station and there's no way back at all

REPEAT CHORUS

Emily's Angel
