The Best Chance |

Every building that's built Will someday come down It will age, it will buckle It will crash to the ground Every car that we drive Will someday just die The engine, the brakes The gas tank runs dry Every shirt that we purchase All the clothes that we wear They will fade and unravel They will stain, they will tear Every tree that's above us Never matter how tall It's time too will come And then it will fall Every day that we wake When the sun shines so bright We're sure we can count on The darkness of night Nothing lasts forever So it seems to be true But nothing's ever had a better chance Than the love I feel for you |
