Terri Clark - She didnt have time

^CHe said goodbye from the edge of the porch Like ^Fshe'd been some casual friend He said "Yo^Fu're better off without me, I'm not what you need." Like her ^Fmomma had said about him He ^Cstarted the car, pulled out of the drive Didn't ^Fwaste any time lookin' back She ^Fwatched him go thinkin' even a stranger Would ^Amshow more compassion than ^Fthat

She could've ^Ccried but she didn't have ti^Fme She had a baby to fe^Fed a pink blanket to find To rock their little one to ^Csleep She could've laid in bed for ho^Furs giving misery the ^Fpower But she ^Fdidn't have ^Ftime

^CShe got a sitter and she got a job 'Cause ^Fshe had a promise to keep Her ^Fday was a factory and evenin' survival And ^Fnight was exhaustion and sleep Some^Ctimes she felt life was passing her by And ^Fwatchin' was all she could do Her f^Friends said you gotta get outta the house And m^Amaybe you'll meet someone ^Fnew

She could've^C tried but she didn't have ^Ftime She had a five-year-old to fee^Fd She had ballet class, piano lessons and T-ball Little L^Ceague She could've laid awake for ^Fhours givin' lonely nights the ^Fpower But she ^Fdidn't have t^Amime

Not time, where would she f^Find the time to trust a man a^Amgain Not time, for that flat ^Ftire, a crowded parking lot and ^Cthen, Not time, but yes, have ^Fcoffee with the man that got her tire fixed ^F She was thinking, 'Gosh, he's handsome' when he as^Fked

She could've ^Clied but she didn't have ti^Fme All she said was "She's fi^Fve."

Does she have your ^Ceyes?" And they sat and talked for ^Fhours Givin' destiny the p^Fower

But she ^Fdidn't have ^Ctime ^{F F}She could've been afraid to fall in love that ^Fnight But she didn't have ^Ftime ^C
