"Thirty 2nd Chances" lyrics

Oh, lovers
Isn't time a bummer?
Ignite you in the summer
That only leaves the fall

And then there's others
Read you cover to cover
The two of you just suffer
And you feel you've seen it all

But, oh, love is for the making
The poems and stargazing
The risk you can't ignore

So tell me how...

How could I live with the things I didn't do
When I know that I want everything with you?
And I'm so lucky for the love I've had to lose
'Cause, baby, thirty second chances led to you

Oh, sorrow
Like there's no tomorrow
No change left to borrow
And you dream of better days

Another lesson
In patience and concession
Too many times to mention
And you feel you've lost your way

But, oh, love is for the taking
You realize who you're saving—
It's been you all along

So tell me how...

How could I live with the things I didn't do
When I know that I want everything with you?
And I'm so lucky for the love I've had to lose
'Cause, baby, thirty second chances led...

Thirty possibilities
That led me here to you
Missing opportunities
That got me to the truth

Was it an ability
I made up in my youth
So I'd get by?

It doesn't have to be this way
Love isn't a disease
But every time I closed my eyes
I wanted to believe

The enemy inside of me
Is what I had to leave
Behind this time

Tell me how...

How could I live with the things I didn't do
When I know that I want everything with you?
And I'm so lucky for the love I've had to lose
Baby, thirty second chances led to you

Thirty possibilities
That led me here to you
Missing opportunities
That got me to the truth

Was it an ability
I made up in my youth
So I'd get by?

And I'm so lucky for the love I've had to lose
Baby, thirty second chances led to you
