Longshot lyrics

You made the callI watched the door to see you coming throughAnd every time it was a warm September wind that blewthen on the air that drifted in the faded smell of denialSee, I don't know so I won't ask I think it's best that waycan't be held responsible for what you didn't sayso let's pretend that I'm not me and it's not you for a whileThis cigarette I'm pulling onthat second pint that's nearly gonethis hand that's sliding down my leg(Chorus)If there's one right thing you've got to dodon't do it tonightand for once enjoy the view just out of the lightif there's one last kiss we've got to havelet's have it tomorrowit's a longshot, but a chance I've got to takeIt's fair to mention from the first thatwhen you touched me thereyou're starting something that I'll finishso just be awareand if you mention one more time we could be soul mates I'll dieit's easy now when I look backthey call that "retrospect"if I had known that night would have such a ripple effectI might've been more like
ly just to let that sleeping dog lieThis T.V. set we're dualing onmy fighting words are nearly gonethere's something sliding down my leg(repeat chorus)I foresaw the day when you would come and make it clearsome things do better where you found themso we'll leave it hereI'm only crying ‘cause this cloud of smoke is burning my eyesand ever since the times when I am standing close to youI see the person that you are, the one I never knewDo you ever feel me anymore or are you too high?Ready get set here we gowhat's been going on? I don't knowI've been standing tall on my last leg(repeat chorus)It's a longshot, from a world awayin a time slot, on a passing dayyou're a longshot, but a chance I've got to take
