He�s gone
you�ve lost
stay behind
and count the cost
you try
you lose
you don�t fall in love by chance
you choose
It�s a decision
made over time
should you take a risk
and start to climb
the steepest hill
only to find
halfway there
you�ve been left behind?
Choosing to love
is risking a lot
and trying to change
and to give all you�ve got
but don�t pretend
it comes out of the blue
you take a chance
and see it through
and if it�s refused
what can you do?
continue hopefully?
start anew?
Lick your wounds
buy your booze
you won�t get drunk by accident
you�ll choose
don�t blame him
for refusing your bid
he didn�t decide to love
you did
Learn the lesson
take the blows
you didn�t fall in love by chance
you chose
play the sad songs
sing the blues
you don�t fall in love by chance
you choose
