Take a chance.
Send me a sign, to show me how you feel
And I'll return my message to you, in a little while.
I'm taking the first step, but it takes two to tango,
So what do you think, shall we dance with each other?
Will you become my lover and my lay with me tonight?
Or shall I leave you to these people and not be by your side?
You see, I'm the one who made you smile
And you told me that it's been a while,
Since you remember being happy and thinking like this;
But I too harbour the bad memories that come with this thing.
But if I can take the risk, then I'm sure you can too;
If you can't, I understand, I've been there too darling.
Those crazy misspent days and those long winter nights,
Left us happy and content.
We were always happy when we weren't crying.
But times stands still for no man and it's time for me to leave.
I've got to leave you here alone now,
So you can breathe a sigh of relief.
You may want things to be different,
But I'm a ghost ship passing by;
The guy you thought you made a connection with,
In the blink of an eye and an awkward smile.
In that moment I saw you truly,
As you wished no-one could see you right now.
With your guard down and you hair messed up;
You shone so bright like a nuclear cloud.
An explosion in my heart and then you were gone;
Tomorrow you may not remember me,
But you shall not be forgotten.
A single smile, with your red hair in the wind,
Reminded me of what could be, if I changed a few things
And forgot those bad memories that have now engulfed me.
They keep me here trapped, letting nobody in.
I'm willing to risk it all and lay here at your disposal,
To dispose of at your dissatisfaction,
But to keep while I'm still useful.
Until the day comes when you disappear into the night,
Then like a candle blowing in the wind,
Your love will walk out of my life.
But the pains we have endured, shall become our cure.
Make us stronger this time; we can do it for sure.
Just one girl and one boy, how hard can it be?
It's as easy to do as you’re A,B,Cs.
