Ten Chances Lyrics

I only had one minute
Left on my calling card.
I was halfway around the world
and it was raining, really hard.
I only had a couple of aspirin
and a half a can of beer.
So I swallowed it down for courage
but it was still pretty hard to hear.
Cause I only had three words
that I wanted to tell you.
That it would be easier if you were here
and I could smell ya.

Words are falling out of nowhere
They're drifting past, they melt like snow
and I know I may be a flake
I've scraped my knees and made mistakes
and I may lose, but mostly win
But sometimes I'll get soaked in sin
But I'll fall right back into your arms again.

So I order four pints of Guinness
and I set em on a trunk
Had a long conversation with a hopeless drunk.
Cause I only had five tickets
and six new friends
One of them had a hissy fit
.....a Mercedes Benz

Words are falling out of nowhere
They're drifting past, they melt like snow
and I know I may be a flake
I've scraped my knees and made mistakes
and I may lose, but mostly win
But sometimes I'll get drenched in sin
But I'll fall right back into your arms again.

So we played seven card stud
and I had a royal flush
and I took out your picture
and started to blush.
Cause I only had eight lives
most cats got nine.
So I skipped out on bungy jumping just this time
Cause I only had ten chances
to say I love you.

Words are falling out of nowhere
They're drifting past, they melt like snow
and I know I may be a flake
I've scraped my knees and made mistakes
and I may lose, but mostly win
But sometimes I'll get drenched in sin
But I'll fall right back into your arms again.

I collapse into your loving arms again.
I fall right back into your arms again.
