PLAY before you start reading:
We've all been given chances. But most of us don't grasp the right concept of that chance. Or, maybe the concept is grasped, but something happened along the way.
Don't know much about your life
Don't know much about your world, but
Don't want to be alone tonight
On this planet they call earth.
You don't know about my past, and
I don't have a future figured out
And maybe this is going too fast
And maybe it's not meant to last
Don't know much about your world, but
Don't want to be alone tonight
On this planet they call earth.

And maybe this is going too fast
And maybe it's not meant to last
Some say it's better the second time around. Some say, third time's the charm.
Then again, some say, when it comes by, you grab it... for it may never come back again.
There are things I missed. There are opportunities that could've been mine if I didn't mess up. I know I've messed up...BIG TIME.
But what do you say to taking chances,
What do you say to jumping off the edge?
Never knowing if there's solid ground below
Or hand to hold, or hell to pay,
What do you say?
What do you say to jumping off the edge?
Never knowing if there's solid ground below
Or hand to hold, or hell to pay,
What do you say?
Here's a wake-up call:
The funny thing about whatever happens... you can start all over again and try to do it right, no matter how impossible it may seem. Because we all know that something better will come along our way. And, hold on to your horses, that something better could be the same one that you passed the last time. Oh, come on. You all know that's true.
I just want to start again,
And maybe you could show me how to try,
And maybe you could take me in,
Somewhere underneath your skin?
There are experiences though that you can't take on your own. I mean, things that are are bigger than you could have anticipated. It's like a one-two punch that was headed your way, and you weren't even prepared. It makes you afraid. It makes me scared of what happens next. It pulls me back. I give in to what other people say. My flaws, my insecurities... I believe that they're right. I forget.
And I had my heart beaten down,
But I always come back for more, yeah.
There's nothing like love to pull you up,
When you're laying down on the floor there.
So talk to me, talk to me, like lovers do.
Yeah walk with me, walk with me, like lovers do.
You just have to believe in yourself. Don't be afraid to help. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need one. Keep on re-shaping your life. Learn from your mistakes. Never dwell on them. How do you start? START!
The destination is very important... true. But enjoy the scenery as you pass by.
