Everybody Gets A Second Chance — Mike & The Mechanics

A single failure A little slip A misdemeanour A little trip Does this condemn me Lock me away? Before you turn the key I have one more thing to say To make amends Maybe be friends

Chorus

Everybody gets a second chance The circumstance to say i'm sorry I'd like to tell you in advance Take my chance and tell you I'm sorry too

A little stumble A little fall Inconsequential Nothing at all Now there was someone I heard him say That the best laid plans Sometimes go astray So don't be surprised If i offer you no alibis

(chorus)

Everybody gets a second chance The circumstance to say i'm sorry I'd like to tell you in advance I'll take my chance and tell you i Take my chance and tell you I love you

(chorus

Everybody wants a Everybody needs a Everybody gets a second chance
