I saw you standing at the corner
Last night at First and Park
I lagged behind so we wouldn’t meet
Until you vanished in the dark
Then you spot me all alone
At the bar of our favorite joint
You walk out before I turn around
because really what’s the point
We never claimed we’d meet once more, by design or circumstance
Who can guess the future, who wants a second chance.
We wrote a story the end was sad
We held each other’s eyes
You listed all your reasons
While I told convenient lies
We swore we’d never speak again
We might have gone too far
I find myself singing of you
This song on my guitar
We never claimed we’d meet once more, by design or circumstance
Who can guess the future, who wants a second chance.
I still hold hope for you
You still want for me
It’s not the same as saying
What will be will be
We’ll meet again someday, those words we never claimed
Cause now you’ve got your freedom, now I’ve got my fame
Who can guess the future, who wants a second chance.
