Lyrics
VERSE
I once had a girl from Peoria
I think her name was Gloria
We were goin' strong like the love was a gift
'Til everything just fell right off the cliff

VERSE
Then there came along Clarice
With her, it's either war or its peace
It's not always pretty, but it's the best there's ever been
If I lost her, oh, my world would end

PRE-CHORUS
I know we're close to goodbye
But I don't want to lose hope
So I guess I just need to wake up, oh yeah
And, buddy, get something done...

CHORUS
Like Yogi used to say, it ain't over 'til it's over
Life ain't much like a four-leaf clover
But all you gotta do is step back and think
If it ain't done, you can bring it back from the brink

SOLO/VERSE
I'm seeing now how I took her for granted
And while I wasn't lookin,' things got slanted
Want to decide my own fate; I hope it's not too late
To bring us back, oh, from the brink

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/Repeat CHORUS/TAG
If it ain't done, you can bring it back from the brink
