Prettiest Girl at the Dance

Stopped in to the Tin Angel for a cold one
You didn’t even know that I was there
Too little, too late is such an old one
I’d be lying if I said I didn’t care
But I’m sitting here tonight
Looking at my life
Wishing I’d held you tighter
When I had the chance
Guess I got what I deserve
The truth is you always were
The prettiest girl at the dance
Don’t know how long I expected
I could keep you waltzing through my door
I sat out when I should have stepped in
And let you drift away across the floor
But I’m sitting here tonight
Looking at my life
Wishing I’d held you tighter
When I had the chance
Guess I got what I deserve
The truth is you always were
The prettiest girl at the dance
Prettiest girl at the dance
You stayed with me, step for step but I missed my chance
With the prettiest girl at the dance
I tore down the good things that made us right
And I’m the one that’s living with regret
Yeah, it was me who turned out all the lights
You took the music with you when you left
But I’m sitting here tonight
Looking at my life
Wishin’ I’d held you tighter
When I had the chance
Guess I got what I deserve
The truth is you always were
The prettiest girl at the dance
Guess I got what I deserve
The truth is I went and hurt
The prettiest girl at the dance
Ah la la....
