What if the fire burns out?
What if we're left without
Anyone to call our own?

You've got it figured out
But if ever you're in doubt
You never have to be alone

People they come
And people they go
And I could be wrong

But there's one thing I know

It's a long shot, baby

But someday both of us will die
So, I was thinking maybe
I could be your semi-perfect guy

You don't know me, baby
But I was hoping we could try
For a long shot, you and I


What if we take a chance?
What if you break your plans

And let me sweep you off your feet?
You say you hate romance
But I'm a persistent man

And I want you here with me
People they come
And people they go

And I could be wrong
But there's one thing I know


I've been praying all my life for love that's true,
But I never thought I'd get a girl like you.
Oh, can't you see, Heaven sent you to me?
