lyrics
Wondering if her sweetheart would be there
Even though she didn't know his name
She took his smile to mean there was a flame
It all goes around
At best its a doubt
Or a fate worse than nothing
In the last light of the day - he made for home
Returning the goodbyes that he'd been thrown
Even though he didn't know her name
He thought about the girl who met his gaze
It all goes around
At best its a doubt
Or a fate worse than nothing
A measure of grace
In the thrill of the chase
May help you save face
But it can't replace
What you might of gained
If you had remained
True to your heart
In the last light of the day
She gathered up the hope she'd thrown away
Even though she didn't want him here
She couldn't bring herself not to care
It all goes around
At best its a doubt
Or a fate worse than nothing
In the last light of the day
He thought of all the things that he could say
Even though he knew he wouldn't dare
He walked to where she stood and met her stare
When it came around
He jumped off the ground
And caught a chance for the taking
