Chances

It's two am 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

When 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 it's just to ease our minds

We all take chances

Wrong or right

Ah but sometimes chances

Take us by surprise

Morning light comes

Shining through 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
