“How come
you don’t
make time for me an y more?”
That’s the
last thing she (Gm)said to you.
And now, when you call, she don’t an swer an y more,
or the line is bus y and you can’t get through.
In the time
it would take
you to learn from your mis takes,
in the time
it would take to dial the phone,
in the time
it would take
you to re al ize her great ness, she’ll be gone.
She’s moved on
to some one who takes the time.
Her love
was n’t
a pri or i ty to you.
You had
oth er things (Gm)on your mind.
And now
that it’s much too lit tle and so far too late,
the (Bb)bus y sig nal’s all that’s left be hind.
You’re all a lone.
In the time
No one knows what they have un til they don’t,
and by then it does n’t mat ter an y more.
You’re all a lone.
In the time
it would take
you to learn from your mis takes,
in the time
it would take to dial the phone,

She’ll be gone.
In the time
it would take
you to re al ize her great ness, she’ll
be gone.
She’s moved on.
Hang up the (Cm)phone.
