Second Chances

I'll try to keep it simple

I'll try to keep it plain

'Cause I ain't try to go about

Gettin' myself a new name

'Cause ever since a year ago

Your smile took me by surprise

And somethin' sweet with deep deep roots

Planted itself behind my eyes

I'm one for giving

You're one for getting

Second chances

So I'll go on forgiving

And you go on forgetting all the

Time we've lost

How can I try to tell you

Open doors don't always gape

I am learning youthful minds

Might let a thing or two escape

'Cause oh, despite my principles

I am learning this is true:

That I do not think my life would be wasted if I

Stayed in place with you

I'm one for giving

You're one for getting second chances

So I'll go on forgiving

You go on forgetting all the time, oh

I'm one for giving

You're one for getting second chances

So I'll go on forgiving

And you'll go on forgetting all the time

All the time
