Lyrics
Second Chances
By Mel Stubbs © 2006
Have you ever wondered where the days go?
It?s like they pass me by, in the blink of an eye.
Just yesterday you were so small
In your Momma?s arms but now
You?re all grown up and I?m not sure how,
Time got away from me.
Chorus:
If I could do it all over again.
There would be a lot of things different.
I would take the time for you to see
That you?re important to me.
But the problem is, that we don?t get
Second chances.
You grew up and we grew apart.
We haven?t talked in a while
I?ve missed your smile.
I hope you?re doing alright.
Cause I?m going out of my mind.
All I want is what I left behind,
So many years ago.
Chorus:
Bridge:
God I?ve prayed, everyday
For a chance to make it right
Lord you know, I will go on
Crying every night.
But I just got home from work this evening
With a light on my machine
And it said the greatest thing.
Dad
Chorus:
I want to try it all over again.
There?s gonna be a lot of things different.
I?m gonna take the time for you to see
That you?re important to me.
Sometimes we get, what God can give,
Second Chances.
