The Chances Are

V1. Lies and slander,
Everywhere you look its just wrong.
I try to help you
But you look at me like you can't belong;
It can't be long.

V2. 'Til one day,
One of us walks away with the sunset.
I'll be waiting baby
When you return to me;
Return to me.

V3. Those feelings,
That you've taken with you, honey.
Were mine to keep
And not with you to leave;
Not for you to leave.

V4. Me with,
These lonely glances.
I look right, look left
But seeing you,
Oh the chances...

CHORUS: The chances are slim,
Seeing you babe, after this.
The chances aren't there,
Anymore now, since I've settled down.

V5. You left me searching,
Needing something more.
I loved you but
Somethings I can't ignore;
I can't ignore.

V6. You kissing me,
Staring ahead, feeling nothing.
I need love and heart
Mixed with understanding;
Understand.

V7. That when I say I love you,
I still mean it.
A love that's fed on friendship
And endearment;
Endearing ways.

V8. Subsided from,
What once was a true love.
And sadly I must
Move on my lonely way...

But CHORUS

Now I must walk away,
And I know you'll be better the next day...

Still CHORUS
