DIANA ROSS - One More Chance lyrics

rate me

(Michael Masser/Gerry Goffin)

Feel like a fool

Not realizing all the value you had

I took a happy ending and made it sad

The day I walked away and left you alone

with hardly an explanation

You stood on your own

And handled the situation

And showed to me

How understanding you could be

Now I'm alone

Looking back at all the years that we shared

Thinking of the pain you should have been spared

Afraid to ask forgiveness

But where can I go

There's no one else to turn to

I still have my pride

But now its time to learn to cast it aside

And come to you with honesty

Give me just one more chance

Such a simple thing I'm asking for

Just one more chance

It would be a shame to close the door to

One more chance

Isn't that what we pray each night for?

One more chance

Isn't that what we're fighting for?

Why throw away a love that needs one more chance

Now I'm afraid that after all I've said

You'll still turn me down and you'll smile

And say I'll see you around

But remember that you still have a choice

And I hope and pray you'll make it

You'll think of my heart

And you won't wanna break it

And I'll prove to you the kind of lady I can be

Give me just one more chance

Such a simple thing I'm asking for

Just one more chance

It would be a shame to close the door to

One more chance

Isn't that what we pray each night for?

One more chance

Isn't that what we're fighting for?

One more chance

Don't you know that we belong together

One more chance

Now I really need you more than ever

One more chance

You and I can really make it baby

One more chance

All you have do is say the words to

One more chance

One more

One more chance

One more chance
