Just One Time
Frank Ifield Lyrics

Just one more chance
I am pleading with you for another opportunity to show that all I care about is you

To prove it's you alone I care for
This chance will allow me to demonstrate that my affections are solely for you

Each night I say a little prayer for
I pray every night that you will give me this chance

Just one more night
One more night to experience the magic of your kisses

To taste the kisses that enchant me
To feel the uncontrollable spell of your sweet lips

I'd want no others if you'd grant me
With this one chance, I promise to have eyes for no one but you

I've learned the meaning of repentance
I understand the gravity of my mistakes and the need for forgiveness

Now you're the jury at my trial
You hold the power to determine my fate with this decision

I know that I should serve my sentence
I know that I deserve to face punishment for my past wrongs

Still, I'm hoping all the while
Despite this, I remain optimistic that you will grant me a second chance

You'll give me Just one more word
All I need is a word from you to grant me my request

I said that I was glad to start out
I thought I could move on without you, but I was wrong

But now I'm back to cry my heart out
My heart is breaking without you, and I'm begging for your forgiveness

We spend our lives in groping for happiness
Our lives are spent searching for happiness and love

I found it once and tossed it aside
I had it once with you, but I foolishly let it go

I paid for it with hours of loneliness
I suffered the consequences of being without you and realized my mistake

I've nothing to hide
I'm being completely honest and transparent about my feelings

I'd bury my pride for... (mmm-bo-ba-ba-boo)
I am willing to put aside my pride and do whatever it takes for one more chance with you

Just one more chance (mmm-bo-ba-ba-boo) Just one more chance
Once again, I am asking for one more chance to make things right with you
