Just One More Chance
Frank Ifield Lyrics

Just one more chance
Asking for another opportunity

To prove it's you alone I care for
Wanting to show that their love is genuine and only for the other person

Each night I say a little prayer for
Consistently thinking of the other person, hoping for reconciliation

Just one more night
Wanting to relive a moment with the other person

To taste the kisses that enchant me
Desiring the feeling of the other person's affection

I'd want no others if you'd grant me
Will only be satisfied with the other person's love

I've learned the meaning of repentance
Recognizing their past mistakes and wanting to make amends

Now you're the jury at my trial
The other person has the power to forgive or condemn

I know that I should serve my sentence
Accepting responsibility for their actions and willing to make up for it

Still, I'm hoping all the while
Despite the consequences, they still have hope for another chance

You'll give me just one more word
Hoping for a sign of acceptance from the other person

I said that I was glad to start out
Started the relationship positively

But now I'm back to cry my heart out
Feeling regretful and sad after losing the other person's love

For just one more chance
Continuing to plead for another opportunity

We spend our lives in groping for happiness
The pursuit of finding happiness is a constant struggle

I found it once and tossed it aside
Had love but took it for granted and lost it

I paid for it with hours of loneliness
The consequences of their actions resulted in loneliness

I've nothing to hide
Being honest and open about their feelings

I'd bury my pride for...
Willing to put aside their ego for the chance to prove their love
