Chance It

Hey baby, I am your mystery man
Been trying to find you for
Half of a whole life span

The dream is tarrying there on the edge of darkness
You drift in the moonlight
Like love incarnate
Searching for your all too worldly catharsis

Hey baby, do you know what they say
"Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you should do today"
So chance it

And I was watching you
Waiting all alone by the station
Looking at the factory girls
Leaving for their homes without elation

For all that's ugly in this world
You symbolise the exact negation
(With acclimation)
Scared that you'll reject me when I
Reveal the depths of my prostration
(I hope it's lost in translation)

Hey babe, you know what they say
Carpe diem, or seize the day
Now, chance it

Oh, we will be lying on the light
Of a million stars
Shining bright
In the firmament
Like satellites
And our love you can't extradite
To the morning sun

Hey baby, I am your history man
Do you remember where it all began?
The sign said "vacancy", and you would not forsaken me
Don't know about the papacy, but you knew it was meant to be
If I am dreaming, then please don't awaken me

Hey babe, you know what they say
We ain't got forever but we've got today
So chance it

Oh, we are lying on the light
Of a million stars
Shining bright
In the firmament
Like satellites
And our love you can't extradite
To the morning sun
