He's gone
You've lost
Stay behind

and count the cost
You try
You lose

You don't fall in love by chance
You choose


It's a decision made over time
Should you take a risk and start to climb the steepest hill only to find halfway there you've been left behind?
Choosing to love is risking a lot and trying to change and to give all you've got

But don't pretend it comes out of the blue
You take a chance and see it through and if it's refused what can you do?
Continue hopefully? Start anew?


Lick your wounds
Buy your booze

You won't get drunk by accident
You'll choose
Don't blame him

for refusing your bid
He didn't decide to love
You did


Learn the lesson
Take the blows

You didn't fall in love by chance
You chose
Play the sad songs

Sing the blues
You don't fall in love by chance
You choose
