~Second Chances~

​

The time has come

Take hold of your life

Days of youth fading

Time filled with strife

 

Foolishness of days past

They've left you scattered

Tears cried in solitude

Rivers of dreams shattered

 

One more time around

So many have prayed for

This is your second chance

Show the world what you were made for

 

These are the days

Of second chances

So many ways

It's time to start

 

The time is now

Stand up and grasp it

You'll know somehow

You can really go far

 

But know

You must take it and make it so

 

Don't be afraid

Mistakes of the past

They lead to growth

The soul mends fast

 

Sometimes all we get

Is one time around

You have had another

A second chance has been found

 

This roller coaster of life

Seems hard to get off of

The lessons you learned

The chance to find love

 

These are the days

Of second chances

So many ways

It's time to start

 

The time is now

Stand up and grasp it

You'll know somehow

You can really go far
