Second Chance

** ** GGGG OOOOOO ********** *** GGGGGGGG O O ************ **** GG O O ********** *** GG O O ** ** GG GGGG O O GGGGGGG OOOOOO
Jumping over the moon and skimming through the stars Zipping through the galaxy with no wings and without bars There is nothing to stop me now flying out into space Following my dreams is not a dream so out of place. A second chance is not given - often some barely get a first Its time to take stock of life - and drink it with a dry thirst. The hours the minutes are counted, but don’t look at the clock Get out there and follow your dreams in fact - don’t waste time taking stock A child is born a chid dies it’s happening all around Enjoy every second of life - while trying to keep your feet still on the ground We were given a life, a life to live, not everyone is so fortunate Don’t make them regret your turn - by not daring to leave your gate Open it run and fly, the opportunities are there Forget your coat just go for it - for those of us that dare.
