[Refrain]
Sorry, but you had your chance
Uh

Come on
I'm sorry, but you had your chance
(You had your chance baby)
I'm sorry, but you had your chance
(You had your chance baby)
Haha
I'm sorry, but you had your chance
(You had your chance baby)
Take 'em to the club MC

[Verse 1]
Well, it's been a while
Uh-huh
Since I looked into your eyes
Never dreamed I'd see you tonight
And it's interesting that I
Just don't feel a thing
For the so called love of my life (My life)
Say what

[Pre-Chorus]
We used to be close
But you didn't love me
Uh-uh
We used to be best friends
But you never really cared
I let you into my soul
I didn't know you couldn't be trusted
It took me so long to forget
All the little things we shared
Come on

[Chorus]
And now you want me back again
After my heartache and suffering
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
I was your fool
But that's all in the past
So sorry, boy, but you had your chance (Oooh)

[Verse 2]
Yeah
You see, I spent so many sleepless nights
Trying to block you from my mind
Uh-huh
I was so convinced
I'd die without you once upon a time
Now my eyes are open and I can see
You were devious and shady
Only trifling with me

[Pre-Chorus]
We used to be close
But you didn't love me
Haha
We used to be best friends
(Used to be my best friend)
But you never really cared
(No)
I let you into my soul
I didn't know you couldn't be trusted
(I didn't know, I didn't know)
It took me so long to forget
All the little things we shared
(Oooh, and now)

[Chorus]
And now you want me back again
After my heartache and suffering
(After)
Yeah
I was your fool
(I was your fool in the past, though that is over)
But that's all in the past
(So sorry, boy)
So sorry, boy, but you had your chance
(Hmm)
Come on!

[Bridge]
Where were you when I needed you most?
Oh, uh-huh
Would've done anything to hold you close
(Anything, just to hold you close)
Would've given the whole world to be back in your arms
That's (?) right there
But you left me so torn apart
MC talk (?)

[Chorus]
And now you want me back again
(Say you want me back again)
After my heartache and suffering
(After my heartache and suffering)
I was your fool
(I was your fool)
But that's all in the past
So sorry, boy, but you had your chance
(So sorry, boy)

[Outro]
And now you want me back again
Yeah
After my heartache and suffering
I was your fool
But that's all in the past
So sorry, boy, but you had your chance

And now you want me back again
After my heartache and suffering
I was your fool
But that's all in the past
So sorry, boy, but you had your chance

And now you want me back again
Uh-huh, everybody rock on
After my heartache and suffering
Come on
I was your fool
But that's all in the past
So sorry, boy, but you had your chance

And now you want me back again
After my heartache and suffering
I was your fool
But that's all in the past
So sorry, boy, but you had your chance

Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, and philanthropist.

Under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, Carey released her self-titled debut studio album Mariah Carey in 1990; it went multi-platinum and spawned four consecutive number one singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Following her marriage to Mottola in 1993 and success with hit records “Emotions” (1991), “Music Box” (1993), and “Merry Christmas” (1994), Carey was established as Columbia’s highest-selling act. Daydream (1995) made music history when its second single “One Sweet Day”, a duet with Boyz II Men, spent a record sixteen weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100, and remains the longest-running number-one song in U.S. chart history, along with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito.” During the recording of the album, Carey began to deviate from her R&B and pop beginnings and slowly traversed into hip hop. This musical change became evident with the release of Butterfly (1997), at which time Carey had separated from Mottola.
