Across the street your smile broke  Like a wave upon my face  You didn't notice me at all  Across the street I saw you  With some other pretty face  I loved you then I love you now  I loved you then I love you now  I had to take a chance  Cos special moments only tend  To happen now and then  I had to take my chance and  Grab the moment by its ears  Not be just some fly on your wall  Had to take my chance there  So I asked you out to dance there  I loved you then I love you now  I loved you then I love you now  I had to take a chance  Cos special moments only tend  to happen now and then  Live for the present  It's the only one we have  Nobody gets out of here...... alive  Life in the future might never come to pass  You know -- the good times are now
