Why didn´t I?

I shoulda listened to that little voice inside my head
When I saw her in the study typing on her Mac.
The place was packed, but I still felt like we were all alone,
Then I started to lose my nerve...why am I taking so long?
I had a million questions running up inside my head:
Is she lonely? Is she tired? Does she got a man? What does she wear in bed?
But I just stood there frozen and she got away.

CHORUS:

It coulda been me and you together walking in the rain.
We coulda been making out and making plans to run away.
But here I am all alone outside and I really wish I told her everything that I was feeling inside.

I had an angel by my side.
Why didn't I? Didn't I?
I had angel by my side.

VERSE 2:

I started to ask around if anyone might know her name.
A friend of hers told me that she thought she was single again.
That's all the info that I needed to keep hope alive.
I searched the dorm and the caf and the laundromat and the park and ride.
Then one fateful day I saw her at the top of the stairs,
So I got up my courage, started walking over there.
And as I did I saw another guy with his hand in her hair.
I guess I was too late.

CHORUS:

It coulda been me and you together walking in the rain.
We coulda been making out and making plans to run away.
But here I am all alone outside and I really wish I told her everything that I was feeling inside.

I had an angel by my side.
Why didn't I? Didn't I?
I had angel by my side,
And I felt like I could die.

BRIDGE:

Then she turned around, she walked over to me.
She said 'I noticed you noticing me.'
I said 'Who's the guy?'
She said 'Just a friend...and I've been wondering where you've been!'
And we walked around and we got to know each other very well that fall.

CHORUS:

And now it's me and you together walking in the rain.
And now we're making out and making plans to run away.
Cuz I was so alone outside and I really wanna tell her everything that I was feeling inside.

I had an angel by my side.
Why didn't I? Didn't I?
I had angel by my side.
Why didn't I? Didn't I?
I had angel by my side.
Why didn't I? Didn't I?
Why didn't I? Why didn't I?
Why didn't I? Why didn't I?
