Can't you see I'm moving on? You had your chance And now it's only a memory You made your bed It was only a matter of time You had your chance All while you were waiting and asking God to let you life begin He tried to call me up to share his hopes and dreams But I just never had the time I thought this wall I built would keep you safe from me But you were always on my side I've been so hard to find and harder to believe But now I've come to wear my heart upon my sleeve So you finally changed your mind Well, maybe I've changed made You had your chance And now it's only a memory You made your bed It was only a matter of time You had your chance All while you were waiting and asking God to let you life begin And when we pass away and fill the scales of right and wrong I will have nothing to declare I beg to fill my life of emptiness and start again My holy angel will decline She says You had your chance And now it's only a memory You made your bed It was only a matter of time You had your chance All while you were waiting and asking God to let you life begin
