I gave it the thought
And I dove right in
but pulled out at the last second
'Cause I knew I'd never win
Then she threw me a curve
by returning my glances
Now everyday goes by
and I think higher of my chances
Things start to go better
and I can't believe we're here
she's laying in my arms
And the world disappears
The next morning arrives
I wake up overjoyed
but she gives me the news
That she can't leave the other boy...
I sit in a stupor
let down yet again
but the heart wants what it wants
And it hopes it'll win
She's the only one I want
And I'm torn in two directions
I'm just hoping that some day
she'll decide love's worth the chances...
