Last Chance

(Album: The Pursuit Of Accidents - 1982)

Waking up, sitting up,
Troubled by a dream
You were here, arms around me sleeping
Should have known, I'm all alone
That's the way it's been since I lost you,
Ah ... ah

Growing up, owning up,
I've come to realise
That I just can't live my life without you
'Cause I find
That everytime I close my eyes I still see you
Ah ... ah

We all feel the pain of love from time to time that's true
Only love can lead us through these troubled days

Close the door, dim the lights
I just want to prove you wrong tonight
I won't lie, or fake romance
All I want from you is one last chance

Out of love, out of luck
I'm whispering your name
Talking to pictures that surround me
No-one hears
And tears are falling like the rain, how I need you,
Ah ... ah

I was wrong
But I can learn to change my ways
I only hope that I can find you
Driven on
By the memory of your face shining for me
Like a star in space ...

Tell me what you're waiting for
Do what's in your heart
Remember all we had before
It's tearing you apart
Why don't we make love tonight
That's the only way
Just believe with all your mind
In what love has to say

Growing up, owning up,
I've came to realise
That I just can't live my life without you
Now I know
That when I open up my eyes I will see you
Ah ... ah

We all feel the pain of love from time to time that's true
Only love can lead us through these troubled days

Close the door, dim the lights
I just want to prove you wrong tonight
I won't lie, or fake romance
All I want from you is one last chance
