From the recording Second Chance
Lyrics
SECOND CHANCE
He looked into the mirror
Didn't know his own face
Just a dark reflection
Of the man he'd come to hate
No sign of compassion
As tears rolled down his face
He cries and begs forgiveness
For the things he cannot change
The years we lose on the path we choose
They ain't ever coming ‘round again
If he could change somehow
How it all turned out
Take back all the hurting he did then
This time he wouldn't miss the dance
If only for a second chance
He tries to be the father
The one they always missed
Gettin' that time back is hard
When your broken and ya can't be fixed
The work away was all he knew
His army greens he missed
A soldier making up lost time
And living with regret
The years we lose on the path we choose
They ain't ever coming ‘round again
If he could change somehow
How it all turned out
And take back all the hurting he did then
This time he wouldn't miss the dance
If only for a second chance
The years we lose on the path we choose
They ain’t ever coming ‘round again
If he could change somehow
How it all turned out
And take back all the hurting he did then
This time he won’t miss the dance
If only for a second chance
