Love Is a Second Chance
I met many lovers
But not all of them were true
None of them were genuine
I thought none of them would do.
Some of them surprised me
They turned out different than I thought.
Some were great deceivers
Spending much time in mock.
Some were brazen liars
But had put on quite a show
Others great deniers
Saying I had much too far to go.
Led my heart to disappointment
They couldn't pass the test.
They couldn't do the right thing
My hope was laid to rest.
But I had to keep on trying
To find a perfect match
I know how I will pitch this
To find a perfect catch.
I'll give everyone a second chance
And see just what they'll do
Plan A is gone, but the game's still on
Can anyone be true?
If the second inning of your life
Proves better than the first
If you right the wrong, rewrite the song
You may steal a second verse.
Since mischief is in every player
Then every play has failed
But what you do the second time around
May be just of the Lord.
Therefore I believe in second chances
Fixing lives and such
So don't give up on charity
And don't give up on love.
