No Chance - Regret

It must be nice to be steady, it must be nice to be firm It must be nice never to move off the mark It must be nice to be dependable and never let anyone down It must be great to be all the things you're not It must be great to be all the things that I'm not I see you in the hospital your humor is intact I'm embarrassed by the strength I seem to lack If I was in your shoes So strange that I'm not I'd fold up in a minute and a half And I didn't get a chance to say goodbye It must be nice to be normal it must be nice to be cold It must be nice not to have to go oh up or down But me I'm all emotional no matter how I try You're gone and I'm still here alive And I didn't get a chance to say goodbye No - I didn't get a chance to say goodbye There are things we say we wish we knew and in fact we never do But I'd wish I'd known that you were going to die Then I wouldn't feel so stupid, such a fool that I didn't call And I didn't get a chance to say goodbye I didn't get a chance to say goodbye No there's no logic to this - who's picked to stay or go If you think too hard it only makes you mad But your optimism made me think you really had it beat So I didn't get a chance to say goodbye I didn't get a chance to say goodbye
