Second Chances
You get a lot of second chances in life
Some are more deserving then others
The most important ones, by far
Are made between consoling lovers
Let’s give this one more shot
To really say we tried
Then if it doesn’t work
In that I can confide
Some are not so lucky
And are left wondering why
What did I do, how can I change
So my next ‘ship wont sail me by
Those of us who are lucky enough
And are given that second chance
Will risk it all to not repeat
That unfortunate circumstance
I definitely consider myself
To be a ‘lucky one’
I thought that I had lost my love
But I have most certainly won
Just having love back in my life
Is fulfilling in it’s own
But having his love back in my life
Is a feeling I’ve never known
I didn’t realize at first
The gift that God was giving
Even when I wanted to die
He helped me keep on living
And even though I could live without
He knew I didn’t want to
I know I don’t need you in my life
But I can’t stand to be without you
Even though you broke my heart
And left me in a trance
At least you came back to fix it
And that deserves a second chance
