This should've been my time It's over, it never began Facing a world, for once not on my side I simply turned and ran I try to blame it on fortune Some kind of shift in a star But I know the truth and it haunts me Its flown just a little too far I know the truth and it mocks me I know the truth and it shocks me Oh, Its flown just a little too far Yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah-e-yes
[Janet] People had faith in me I think I once did too I promise whoever has a hold on our lives I'll see the bad times through This should have been my time It's over, it never began Facing a world, for once not on my side I simply turned and ran I try to blame it on fortune Some kind of twist in my fate I know the truth and it haunts me I learned it a little too late I know the truth and it mocks me I know the truth and it shocks me I learned it a little too late
[Both] I try to blame it on fortune Some kind of twist in my fate (But) I know the truth and it haunts me I learned it a little, a little too late I know the truth and it mocks me I know the truth and it shocks me Oh, oh, yeah, I learned it a little too late
