Lyrics

You were turnin' eight
I was workin' late
I wondered what you wished for
When they lit your cake

I made it home by ten
Everyone was gone by then
You were sound asleep
Another promise I didn't keep

Melted candles pink balloons
I left the ballet shoes you hoped for outside your room

I Just Missed You
I know I should've been there and I wish somehow
I knew then what I know now
There is no second chance
Once the music ends you've missed the dance
And life goes on
I Just Missed You

Senior prom
Pictures with your mom
I bet you felt just like a princess
In blue chiffon

I was headin' home
Thinkin' how you've grown
This time around
I wasn't gonna let you down

Another flight delay
I caught the taillights of your limousine as it drove away

(Repeat Chorus)

Now you're the one with the busy life
You're someone's mom someone's wife
So if you're wonderin' why
I'm callin' out of the blue

(Repeat Chorus)
