I waited for you cause I was in love
Now I see loving you was not enough
You were alone before I met you
Oh what a lonely boy
Now it's to late to try cause it's goodbye
Oh bye bye
You're out of time, I'm movin' on
You had your chance, that chance is gone
So stop your tears they won't work here
I'm movin' on
Love is a lonely game when it's for one
I stayed while you went out having your fun
I waited up till three just hoping
You would come home to me
Now it's too late to cry cause it's goodbye
Oh bye bye
You're out of time, I'm movin' on
You had your chance, that chance is gone
So stop your tears they won't work here
I'm movin' on
