One Chance at a Time

Hello there you tell me
 You got a lot of real respect for my kind the old timers
 Well, I'm old enough to know the rules nobody gave me the book
 I had to learn to improvize myself and time and time I let me down
 Until I learned the hard way how to feel what's real
 You get one chance at a life to give it all and get it right
 After all this time in mine everything I thought I knew
 Was telling me to give it up and leave it all behind
 But you get endless second chances to take it one chance at a time
 For love and money I made a lot of dumb mistakes in my time
 Believe me I proved and proved it I can't believe I'm gonna prove it again
 It's time to reinvent myself where the hell does the fire come from
 When making it don't make it anymore, hello
 And you get one chance at a life to give it all and get it right
 After all this time in mine everything I thought I knew
 Was telling me to give it up and leave it all behind
 Oh, but you get endless second chances to take it one chance at a time
 Time and love I been looking all my life for time and love
 Hoping a breeze will come and take me
 I been waiting and waiting and sailing in one place
 Like a bird against the wind afraid to turn and fly away
 You get one chance at a life to give it all and get it right
 After all this time in mine everything I thought I knew
 Was telling me to give it up and leave it all behind, oh
 But you get endless second chances
 Endless second chances to take it one chance at a time
 One chance at a time, one chance at a time
 One chance at a time, one chance at a time
 One chance at a time, one chance at a time
