Every time someone walks through those doors, I hope that it's her. And every time, it isn't.
Every time the phone rings, I hope that it's her. And every time, it isn't.
Every time I get a text message, I hope that it's her. And every time, it isn't.
Every time I get a "comment," I hope that it's her. And every time, it isn't.
Every time I get an Instant Message, I hope that it's her. And every time, it isn't.

And that's when I know that it's time to move on.

Love is like free-falling, step off the edge and it begins
I feel you hesitating, can you trust enough to go all in?

I don't want half a heart, I want the whole damn thing
You only let me in so far, then I'm on the outside looking in
I don't want to fall in love just to have it fall apart
Don't let it be over before we even start

I know someone before me left you with scars I can't undo
But I want to, so I'll spend forever trying
I promise I'm not just passing through
And I need to hear the same from you

Cause I don't want half a heart; I want the whole damn thing
You only let me in so far then I'm on the outside looking in
I don't want to fall in love just to have it fall apart
Don't let it be over before we even start

And I need to know if we're both going down the same road
And say you'll come with me 'cause I can't do it all alone

I don't want half a heart, I want the whole damn thing
I don't want to fall in love just to have it fall apart
Don't let it be over baby before we even start

GOD DAMNIT, CHRIS MANN. THERE YOU GO AGAIN.

I felt it, the wire touched my neck
And then someone pulled it tighter
I never saw it coming
I started to black out and
Then someone said good morning
I took it as a warning
I should have seen it coming
So now I'll take a chance on
This thing we may have started
Intentional or not I
Don't think we saw it coming
It's all adding up to something
That asks for some involvement
That asks for a commitment
I think I see it coming
If we step out on that limb

My heartbeat beats me senselessly
Why's everything got to be so intense with me?
I'm trying to handle all this unpredictability
In all probability...
It's a long shot but I say why not
If I say forget it I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat these odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it
There's no chance

I realize that there is all this doubting
Things we're both scared about that
We'll never see them coming
Throw caution to the wind and
We'll see which way it's blowing
Into this fully knowing
We'll never see it coming
Until it's much too close to stop

My heartbeat beats me senselessly
Why's everything got to be so intense with me?
I'm trying to handle all this unpredictability
In all probability...
It's a long shot but I say why not
If I say forget it I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat these odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it
There's no chance

I waited for fact to come of fiction
And you fit my description
I never saw you coming
But we'll make it

It's a long shot but I say why not
If I say forget it I know that I'll regret it
It's a long shot just to beat these odds
The chance is we won't make it
But I know if I don't take it
There's no chance

I am so glad I let Ann talk me into getting this CD. It is amazing how new music comes into my life at the absolute PERFECT time. This song is just... yeah.
