the chances go away:

its late again tonight
ill try not to wake you as i close the door
my footsteps cant be soft on old wood floors
and id really like to hear that its alright

you forgive me more
than it seems you should and i feel
we love in different ways but theyre both real
and different underneath than they appear

and its far too late to tell you all the things you need to hear
the chances go away the chances go away
if im crazy its because you never left you always stay
and what i think im tryin to say is that i love you all i can
but somehow its not the same

im not tryin to start a fight
the last thing that i want is you gone
so lets get some sleep before we reach the dawn
its too hard to keep our thoughts straight in the night

and it wont be long
until we come to grips
i lost the chance to say with my lips
that i know i was wrong
