Chance, chance, chance, chance

Friday bank card yours got stuck
I loaned you a phone quarter, said good luck
Where are you now?

Me and glasses saturday slump
You and your shopping, I looked up
Our eyes met, mine are green
Youd had a peroxide thing
Call now, look me up

Sunday walk, weavers park,
I was on the lakeside
Where the playgrounds meet
In bare feet
You said, mighty cold today
You never see what I think
You didnt like your daytime job
I was born to travel

You were a camera, I dropped my keys
Im on the northbound, you were asleep
I said, are you holding?
You wanna ride the silent sky?
I wrote a story on the fly
You in the tabletop
I said, Ive had enough of the city.

I held a bag of apples
You at the last table
I had had a soy dog
Cafe streetside, tuesday bloom
You wanna be on fire, I said I hung the moon

Wednesday grocery, corner of vine,
You were in the checkout line
I dropped my frozen dinners, you helped pick them up

Thursday cab rush, our block,
You with broken accent, my heart stopped
You laughed, I worry

Chance, chance, chance, chance
Swarming like a dozen crushing blows
All those glances, midtime dances
Chance

I never looked it up
You hit the sidewalk talking
Said, Id read the ads
Do you?
Where are you? will you read this? can I see?
This is surely moving faster than I can think

A minute shy, a passing eye
I know I saw you there
Will you read this? can I see? what did I see?
Chance, chance, chance, chance
Swimming like a dozen crushing blows
All those midtime dances
Chance

Guys, this is very tedious... stop!
