Written by Willy Braun, Micky Braun, Dustin Welch Theres a lonely man thinkin about a long lost love The gleam in a young girls eye The content of a man just in from the cold With a pretty young thing by his side But he threw it away like a lifetime wasted Still learnin what he ought to know Once a fresh young buck now hes down on his luck And the miles are startin to show Chorus So if youre looking for a little affection Dont go waiting for the timing to be right The trouble with romance is taking your chances In the desperation of a downtown night Theres a lonely girl sitting with a chip on her shoulder Feeling that times runnin out The dismay of a woman who never saw it coming Never knew what it was about The confusion of a girl who watched as her whole world Completely unraveled at the seams Once the toast of the town now it all comes down To findin the man of her dreams Chorus Bridge And when the lights go down and youre all alone You think youll never find love but you dont wanna go home But if youre looking for a little affection Dont go waiting for the timing to be right The trouble with romance is taking your chances In the desperation of a downtown night
