Letra de Longshot

You made the call
I watched the door to see you coming through
And every time it was a warm September wind that blew
then on the air that drifted in the faded smell of denial
See, I don´t know so I won´t ask I think it´s best that way
can´t be held responsible for what you didn´t say
so let´s pretend that I´m not me and it´s not you for a while

This cigarette I´m pulling on
that second pint that´s nearly gone
this hand that´s sliding down my leg

(Chorus)
If there´s one right thing you´ve got to do
don´t do it tonight
and for once enjoy the view just out of the light
if there´s one last kiss we´ve got to have
let´s have it tomorrow
it´s a longshot, but a chance I´ve got to take

It´s fair to mention from the first that
when you touched me there
you´re starting something that I´ll finish
so just be aware
and if you mention one more time we could be soul mates I´ll die
it´s easy now when I look back
they call that "retrospect"
if I had known that night would have such a ripple effect
I might´ve been more likely just to let that sleeping dog lie

This T.V. set we´re dualing on
my fighting words are nearly gone
there´s something sliding down my leg

(repeat chorus)

I foresaw the day when you would come and make it clear
some things do better where you found them
so we´ll leave it here
I´m only crying ?cause this cloud of smoke is burning my eyes
and ever since the times when I am standing close to you
I see the person that you are, the one I never knew
Do you ever feel me anymore or are you too high?

Ready get set here we go
what´s been going on? I don´t know
I´ve been standing tall on my last leg

(repeat chorus)

It´s a longshot, from a world away
in a time slot, on a passing day
you´re a longshot, but a chance I´ve got to take
