(Carly SimonJacob Brackman)

You said we'd light the firmament

You said our love was permanent

You said we'd stick through thick and thin

Through up and down, through lose and win

But comes the first sign of stormy weather

You're packin' your bags in the trance

But you gotta give



[Chorus:]

Half a chance

Half a chance

Half a chance

To our romance



you can't pretend it's Camelot

Then start to run when things get hot

When love explodes there's always heat

There's always bitter with the sweet

There's always times when your legs feel broken

But you still don't drop out of the dance

You gotta give



Half a chance

Half a chance

Half a chance

To our romance
