|
Its two a.m |
|
and this old bar is closing |
|
He knows the partners |
|
have been chosen |
|
But in the corner both, |
|
he spots lonely youth, |
|
and he catches her eye |
|
And he moves fast |
|
and says my name is Steven |
|
Guess I blew my chance |
|
Since everyone is leaving |
|
She stands up to go |
|
never says hello |
|
But she never says goodbye |
|
Then she smiles and |
|
leans her head back |
|
towards the door |
|
And as she takes his hand |
|
His jaw falls to the floor |
|
Now we all take chances |
|
Every once in a while |
|
We take chances |
|
If its just to ease our minds |
|
We all take chances |
|
Wrong or right |
|
Ah but sometimes chances |
|
Take us by surprise |
|
Morning light comes shining throw her window |
|
She wakes just in time to hear him go |
|
She curls up in bed |
|
Hands on her head |
|
Tears in her eyes |
|
She relives the night they spend together |
|
Shouts out loud "Lord knows I knew better!" |
|
Then she hears a sound |
|
slips on her gown |
|
takes a look outside |
|
With coffee and flowers |
|
He walks toward the door |
|
And as he says "Good Morning" |
|
Her jaw falls to the floor |
|
Now we all take chances |
|
Every once in a while |
|
We take chances |
|
If it's just to ease our minds |
|
We all take chances |
|
Wrong or Right |
|
Ah but sometimes chances |
|
Take us by surprise |
|
Yeah sometimes chances |
|
Take us by surprise |
|
mmm hmmm mmm mmmm mmm |
