lyrics

Second Chance words and music by Darrell Rodgers

I can’t remember just why we said good-bye, so long ago and way back when.
I’m just so grateful that we’ve got this chance to try and be together once again

‘cause, It’s a rare occasion when we get a second chance,
to make a first impression or to re-dance the last dance
Now and then I recommend we resurrect romance and give love a second chance

When we were younger we needed separate space, our own time and our own place
This love today, it’s both old and it’s new, A little different me, a little different you

I’ve been around the world and I’ve seen a thing or two
You’ve been around the world and I know you’ve seen it too
Given time to change your mind, that’s just what love can do
Now all I really need is you

I can’t remember just why we said good-bye, so long ago and way back when.
I’m just so happy we’re together once again, it sure feels good to have a friend

‘cause, It’s a rare occasion when we get a second chance,
to make a first impression or to re-dance the last dance
Now and then I recommend we resurrect romance and give love a second chance
Now and then I recommend we resurrect romance and give love a second chance
Keep givin’ love that second chance.
