She Didn't Have Time - Country Pop All-Stars/Country Music All-Stars/Country Nation
He said goodbye from the edge of the porch
Like she'd been some casual friend
He said "You're better off without me
I'm not what you need" like
Her momma had said about him
He started the car pulled out of
The drive didn't waste anytime lookin back
She watched him go thinkin even a stranger
Would show more compassion than that
She could've cried but she didn't have time
She had a baby to feed a pink blanket to find
To rock their little one to sleep
She could've laid in bed for
Hours giving misery the power
But she didn't have time
She got a sitter and she got a job
'Cause she had a promise to keep
Her day was a factory and
Evenin survival and night
Was exhaustion and sleep
Sometimes she felt life was passing
Her by and watching
Was all she could do
Her friends said "You gotta get outta the house
And maybe you'll meet someone new"
She could've tried but she didn't have time
She had a five years old to feed
She had ballet class
Piano lessons and t-ball little league
She could've laid awake for hours
Giving lonely nights the power
But she didn't have time
Not time where would she
Find the time to trust a man again
Not time for that flat tire
A crowded parking lot and then
Not time but yes have coffee with the man
That got her tire fixed
She was thinking "Gosh he's handsome"
When he asked
"Do you have kids "
She could've lied but she didn't have time
All she said was "She's five"
He said "I saw the car seat I love kids
Does she have your eyes"
And they sat and talked for
Hours givin destiny its power
She could've been afraid
To fall in love that night
But she didn't have time
She could've been afraid
To fall in love that night
But she didn't have time
