Third Time's the Charm

A stately rose
Glorious flower
Slowly fading
Hour by hour
Still so mysterious
By candle light
Heavy lidded eyes
Another night
But our sparkle fades
A little more
We've lost a step on the old dance floor
We've lived it long
We've lived it well
And this is our story to tell

Seasons come and seasons go
And make-up runs
When the tears flow
Ain't gonna leave you
I wouldn't even try
You're still the apple of my eye

We'll try it once
We'll try it twice
If it don't work out
We'll roll the dice
I got your back
You're on my arm
This I know darlin'
Third time's the charm

Vintage vinyl
Old '78
Spinning round
Unravelling fate
It's a song
We know so well
Always seems to cast its spell
Been some hot ones
You best believe
Like those times on New Years eve
We'd watch the clock
We'd count it down
When we were young we counted so loud

You pull me back when I go too far
You are my queen
My shimmering star

We'll try it once
We'll try it twice
If it don't work out
Take my advice
I got your back
You're on my arm
This I know darlin'
Third time's the charm

This life will leave its scars
But without love we ain't going very far
You know that I remember skipping stones across the lake
Thinking back makes my poor heart ache

Ain't gonna leave you
I wouldn't even try
You're still the apple of my eye

We'll try it once
We'll try it twice
If it don't work out
Take my advice
I got your back
You're on my arm

We'll try it once
We'll try it twice
If it don't work out
We'll roll the dice
I got your back
You're on my arm
This I know darlin'
Third time's the charm
