| It seems very high-schoolish to me, where someone breaks up with you and you are like "Why?" Maybe I just feel that way because I was in high school when this song came out. I LOVE Mike Tramp & White Lion though. They were so fabulous. Did you know they had a cameo in the Tom Hanks movie The Money Pit? I love that trivia bit (and that movie). Actually, I really think it is about groupies. They spend one night with the band members and then think they are in love, and follow the band to different concerts. Everyone believes that if they could just get that hot musician guy alone they would see how perfect they are together. | |

| Actually a correction on my comment, I meant to post the following... Boy meets girl, Boy and girl fall in love, Boy and girl have fight Girl leaves boy for good Boy begs her to stay Girl wants nothing to do with boy, Boy gets pissed and says "wait just a minute!" Girl doesn't give him a chance Boy has broken heart He tries to save the relationship and uses the "I never had a chance to love you" line. Meaning he was stupid for never showing his true colors. Now that she's leaving, he sees the mistake he made with her. Sorry about that, folks! | |

| I don't think this song is about groupies or high school relationships. It seems to me that the girlfriend didn't feel cared for and appreciated, so she's getting ready to leave. Meanwhile, the singer feels that he's never really expressed his emotions for the girl, hence the "Wait, I never had a chance to love you." There's a definite wish for closure here, and a realization of what would be missing if the relationship ended. | |

| This is very beautiful song from White Lion. It is about "wanting to know the reason of the break up" and "trying ways to get back together." It is about relationship on the verge of breaking up.. | |
