If I Had One More Chance

If I had one more chance to be able to say goodbye
I’d tell you how much I have always loved you,
and have one final cry.

I’d do all the things I never did
before I have to die.
I’d ask you to forgive those who hurt us too much
as that’s just the way they are as such.

If I had one more chance to say I love you,
and change back the troubles in the past.
I know we’d have another great day
which was nothing like our last.

I’d make love to you as if I never have before,
and go into Gods light to exit out his door.
I’d sing a song with the Angels and the skies
would turn from cloudy to blue;
to have one more chance again to say I love you.
If I had one more chance to change my evil ways
to only come to an conclusion to say…..

Look up and don’t ever look back,
don’t be afraid of failure in your life
as your strength will guide you on your way.
Don’t listen to those who say you can not succeed
as they are probley afraid themselves like a devil seed.

If I had one more chance I would hold your hand every day
to tell you there’s a better life your way.
Look up and see our new life where in Gods hand we will fly
 as we will be at peace to never again cry.
