She's the kinda girl boys read about in magazines, glossy magazines
She is the only one I think about leading lady in my dreams
Hey I have waited so long,
To gather up my courage she has got me love drunk fumbling my words
Times running out, gotta do it now
She's the one I cannot live without

Yeah, she's the one I cannot live without
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You only get one shot so make it count
You might never get this moment again
The clock is ticking down, it's the final round
So tell me what it is that's stopping you now
You never know unless you try
You'll only regret sitting wondering why
You only get one shot so watch this moment go by
When love's on the line

I never thought that I would get the chance to tell this girl how I feel,
Tell her how I feel
Sometimes I pinch myself a mile away, this can't be real,
This can't be real
Move faster can't wait any longer,
Gotta do something before she gets away
Do it like a movie, take her by the hand,
I'm gonna love this girl until the end

You only get one shot so make it count
You might never get this moment again
The clock is ticking down, it's the final round
So tell me what it is that's stopping you now
You never know unless you try
You'll only regret sitting wondering why
You only get one shot so watch this moment go by when love's on the line

When love's on the line

When love's on the line

She is the definition of beautiful she knocks me off my feet
I'ma tell her she's my everything,
Tell her that she's all I need,
That I know she's the only reason my heart beats
Da da da
Da da da

You might never get this moment again
(You might never get this moment again)
(You might never get this moment again)
You only get one shot so make it count
You might never get this moment again (never get this moment again)
The clock is ticking down, it's the final round
So tell me what it is that's stopping you now
You never know (never know) unless you try (unless you try)
You'll only regret sitting wondering why (wondering why)
You only get one shot so watch this moment go by
When love's on the line

When love is on the line, when love is on the line,
When love is one the line

When love's on the line
(I wish I had one more chance, I wish I had one more chance)

When love's on the line.
