One chance in a lifetime
I'm not a coward
But who the hell am I if I don't even try?
It sounds so nice, well planned and wise
Never expecting surprises
Oh no, I'll be strong
Leaving now, is that the right thing?
One chance in a lifetime
Yes, I will take it
My friends and my family
I wonder, it scares me
Have children and homes
Everything dear, will it be here?
My friends will get married
I wonder, it's frightening
I'm not a coward
I wonder, it scares me
Buses I've missed, boys that I've kissed
Yes, I will take it, it can't go wrong
Everything old and familiar
But who the hell am I if I don't even try?
One day when I am returning
Leaving now, is that the right thing?
I wonder, it's frightening
This dull little town
Oh no, I'll be strong
