我们的特别机遇

 You and I took a special chance

the first time we met...

we both knew enough of love, and life, to understand that

two people don't fall in love,

they grow into it, slowly —

and we'd both been hurt before by feelings that seemed too easily lost...

but there was something between usfrom the beginning

a unique harmony¹ that made us take that special chance...

You and I took a special chance 

the first time we argued...

after feeling hurt and sad, and both of us trying to apologize

at the same time for disagreeing

over such a small matter, we knew

that our relationship was worth more

than anything that might come between us.

We knew after that first time

that what we had together

would see us through the hard times

and make us better appreciate the good,

because we took that special chance...

You and I took a special chance 

the first time we said "I love you"...

for we knew that we would share

stormy as well as sunny times, laugher ans tears, some dreams that

would come beautifully true, and others

that would fade² in our memories —

and we knew in our hearts

that our love deserved³ all the effort

we could make to fulfill⁴ our life together...

for we took that special chance...

and found a very special love.
