Second Chance - El DeBarge

Why should be just a memory

It’s like a bell that keeps on ringing

Calling me

But I believe what I can see

And I can feel the warmth of love

Surrounding me

So tonight I lay me down to sleep

And pray my soul to keep

In that your love will rescue me

For the rest of my life

I live to say good bye

To all the promises left behind

Here we are you and I

A second chance

I have changed

(I have changed)

But take the blame

(Take the blame)

For all the words left and spoken through the pain

I played the game and lost and spayed

But I have cleansed myself by walking through the rain

So tonight I lay me down to sleep

And pray my soul to keep

In that your love will rescue me

For the rest of my life

I live to say good bye

To all the promises left behind

Here we are you and I

A second chance

If you listen there’s a melody in how you live your life

(How you live your life)

You can write the song you want to hear

And I pray

(Pray)

To live mine

So in the mirror speaks

It tells me you have faced your inner fears

And in loving this song

So tonight I lay me down to sleep

And pray my soul to keep

In that your love will rescue me

For the rest of my life

I live to say good bye

To all the promises left behind

Here we are you and I

No, I’m not giving up

I am here to stay

A second chance

A second chance

A second chance
