The Chances That I Had (Live)

You carry that look
Through the air with your eyes
Through the sound of the amps
And the heat of the lights

From the back of the room
I feel you staring at me
And I don't need to look back
To make sure you're still with me

And I can't tell
How much time has passed
Since the first song began
Until the last

'Cause I've been whispering songs
Softly to you
From the stage, over the crowd
But it still feels new

And all those cities I will be
It's those same eyes that will haunt me
Because they bring the words I sing to life
And make this real just for the night

So if you find me, let me go
'Cause I'll keep finding ways around the day
I'll have to tell you so
If you don't understand, you don't know
That I'll be gone someday
And there's no way I can stay
These places that I go
(The further that I roam)
They all feel like home
So I'll wrap my mind around this lonely
Feeling as it comes and goes
Bury what I lost
(But at what cost?)
There's no use looking back
(It's too far in the past)
'Cause it never takes away
From all the chances that I had

I said it before
It's been too many times
Since I put myself out there
With my neck on the line

I lost a piece of myself
When I was going through hell
I said never again
No matter how it felt

And all those cities I will be
It's those same eyes that will haunt me
Because they bring the words I sing to life
And make this real just for the night

So if you find me, let me go
'Cause I'll keep finding ways around the day
I'll have to tell you so
If you don't understand, you don't know
That I'll be gone someday
And there's no way I can stay
These places that I go
(The further that I roam)
They all feel like home
So I'll wrap my mind around this lonely
Feeling as it comes and goes
Bury what I lost
(But at what cost?)
There's no use looking back
(It's too far in the past)
'Cause it never takes away
From all the chances that I had

These places that I go
(The further that I roam)
They all feel like home
So I'll wrap my mind around this lonely
Feeling as it comes and goes
Bury what I lost
(But at what cost?)
There's no use looking back
(It's too far in the past)
'Cause it never takes away
From all the chances that I had
