stopped in the ol 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 deserved the truth is you always were the prettiest girl at the dance i don t know how long i expected i could keep you waltzing through my door i sat out when i should have stepped in 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 deserved the truth is you always were the prettiest girl at the dance the prettiest girl at the dance you stayed with me step by step but i missed my chance with the prettiest girl at the dance i tore down the good things that made us right now i m the one that s living with regrets yeah it was me who turned out all the lights you took the music when you left 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 deserved the truth is you always were the prettiest girl at the dance  guess i got what i deserved the truth is i went and hurt the prettiest girl at the dance
