From the recording The Remarkable Adventures Of
Lyrics
This ain't the song that I thought I'd be writing tonight
Stopped believing in Mr. Right
I don't know what to believe now
Some say, they say it comes down to fate
That you'll know when it walks your way
But this old heart has been around
All I know is I'm not lonely right now
Stars shine above, but I only saw space between
Reenacting the same old scene
Barely aware of something greater
Went out on a limb, and baby I bet on you
And when you made your move
The odds were in my favor
Maybe it's time, time to up my wager
In this life we're only given so many chances
And I like my chances with you
Here's the truth, it's not like I've got nothing to lose
Clean and sober for a month or two
But the addiction could take over
Still I'm on the line
Baby what's your barter
In this life we're only given so many chances
And I like my chances with you
They say you don't know what you don't know
And I don't know where this road goes
But here's my heart, here's this tortured soul
And my money's on something beautiful
In this life we're only given so many chances
And I like my chances with you
