"Chances" lyrics

"Chances"

It's 2 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

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 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 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 spent 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
