shouldn't have taken a chance on love

I wish things could end up going nicely
But I know they won't
But I'd like to hold onto hope
Oh
Maybe someday you'll think about me fondly
But I bet you won't
'Cause we all have blind eyes
That's right
You put on the blinds
You tell me goodnight
Well what does that mean to you?

I shouldn't have taken a chance
'Cause the aftermath is mocking me
Shouldn't have taken a chance
'Cause the whiplash is killing me
I don't know how I thought that things
Would end up any differently
I shouldn't have taken a chance on love
Again

I know I think about you nightly
Maybe someday I won't
Maybe I have too much hope
Oh, no
I wish I could keep you in my heart
But I know I'll fall apart
If I try to give you love
Fuck
I wish you were mine
When I tell you goodnight
What do I mean to you?

I shouldn't have taken a chance
'Cause the aftermath is after me
Shouldn't have taken a chance
'Cause the whiplash is killing me
I don't know how I thought that things
Would end up any differently
I shouldn't have taken a chance on love
Again

I wish you were mine
When I tell you goodnight
What do I mean to you?

I shouldn't have taken a chance
'Cause the aftermath is after me
Shouldn't have taken a chance
'Cause the whiplash is killing me
I don't know how I thought that things
Would ever turn out perfectly
I shouldn't have taken a chance on love
On love
On love
Again

Just give me the strength to take a chance on love
On love
On love
Again
