oh I just don't know where to begin

love just doesn't wait forever

it's now or never

but she keeps him hanging on

the silly cheering her on

she says she can't go home without a chaperon





CHORUS:

accidents will happen

they're only hit and run

you used to be a victim

now you're not the only one

accidents will happen

they're only hit and run

I don't want to hear it

'cause I know what I've done





there's so many fish in the sea

that only rise up in a sweat of smoke like mercury

but they keep you hanging on

they say you're so young

your mind is made up

but your mouth is undone





CHORUS





and it's the damage that we do

you'll never know

it's the words that we don't say

that scare me so

there are so many people to see

so many people you can check upon

and add to your collection

but they keep you hanging on

until you're well hung

your mouth is made up

but your mind is undone





CHORUS
