Half the Chance

[Verse 1]
At the top of the hill
By the luminous sign
Deep in the hollow
Inside a wooden house
Under the setting sun
You turned shallow
I can still remember when
You'd hold me close and let no one in
At the top of the hill
By the luminous sign
Deep in the hollow

[Chorus]
Given half the chance
I would go back now
Try to shake you up
Get through to you somehow
'Cause not a day goes by
I don't wish that I
Tried to change your mind
Instead you chose your fate and mine

[Verse 2]
Down by that sunset strip
Lost in the thick of it
Deep in the shadows
That night I laid beside
But you could not hide
That guilty swallow
Yeah, I can still remember when
You'd hold me close and let no one in

[Chorus]
Yeah, given half the chance
I would go back now
Try to shake you up
Get through to you somehow
'Cause not a day goes by
I don't wish that I
Tried to change your mind
Instead you chose your fate and mine
Given half the chance
I would go back now
Try to shake you up
Get through to you somehow
'Cause not a day goes by
I don't wish that I
Tried to change your mind
Instead you chose your fate
