I Never Had a Chance Songtext
von Ella Fitzgerald

I guess there′s nothing to do
And nothing to say
But simply go on my way
And call it a day

I guess I'm ready to go
Right back on the shelf
Because at last I′ve learned
Where you're concerned
I've just been fooling myself


I never had a chance
I thought you cared for me
But now I see
I never had a chance
I never had a chance
Though you never told me so
Somehow I know I never had a chance

I knew we′d have to part
For I could always reach your lips
But I could never reach your heart
My dream about romance
Ended in a friendly chat
But more than that

I never had a chance
Never had a chance
Never had a chance
