That frightening little sound It's just the world awake It's just a way of saying we're in business It's just a lightning strike, It's just a family row It's just the give and take of forgiveness Chance being a fine thing brought us together But we're not magnets well not forever It's just the way I am, It's just the way we are It's just a nervous flickering of old flames Now everybody wears the look Of the child who wished to marry you Who, knocking proudly on your door, Was greeted by your pretty wife If this is life make no mistake It keeps the weary world awake Chance being a fine thing brought us together But we're not magnets well not forever It's just the way I am, It's just the way we are It's just a nervous flickering of old flames So don't you cry they're, They're only words They're only the saddest thing you've ever heard Now everybody wears the look Of the child who wished to marry you Who, knocking proudly on your door, Was greeted by your pretty wife If this is life make no mistake It keeps the weary world awake
