Oh, lovers

Isn't time a bummer?

Ignite you in the summer

That only leaves the fall

And then there's others

Read you cover to cover

The two of you just suffer

And you feel you've seen it all

But, oh, love is for the making

The poems and stargazing

The risk you can't ignore

So tell me how

How could I live with the things I didn't do

When I know that I want everything with you?

And I'm so lucky for the love I've had to lose

'Cause, baby, thirty second chances led to you

Oh, sorrow

Like there's no tomorrow

No change left to borrow

And you dream of better days

Another lesson

In patience and concession

Too many times to mention

And you feel you've lost your way

But, oh, love is for the taking

You realize who you're saving

It's been you all along

So tell me how

How could I live with the things I didn't do

When I know that I want everything with you?

And I'm so lucky for the love I've had to lose

'Cause, baby, thirty second chances led to you

Thirty possibilities

That led me here to you

Missing opportunities

That got me to the truth

Was it an ability

I made up in my youth

So I'd get by?

It doesn't have to be this way

Love isn't a disease

But every time I closed my eyes

I wanted to believe

The enemy inside of me

Is what I had to leave

Behind this time

So tell me how

How could I live with the things I didn't do

When I know that I want everything with you?

And I'm so lucky for the love I've had to lose

Baby, thirty second chances led to you

Thirty possibilities

That led me here to you

Missing opportunities

That got me to the truth

Was it an ability

I made up in my youth

So I'd get by?

Oh, I'm so lucky for the love I've had to lose

Baby, thirty second chances led to you
