One More Chance

(album: ABC - 1970)

Everybody loves the star
When hes on the top
But noone ever comes around
When he starts to drop

But you were someone special
You stuck through thick and thin
But I was much too busy
Trying to shine
To let your love shine in

Let you slip away
I must have been insane
Stop in the name of love
Dont make me live my life in vain

[Chorus:]
Give me one more chance
Thats all I ask of you
Just one more chance
Ill make it up to you
Just one more chance
Thats all I ask of you
Ill build you a world for two
Ill make it up to you

Now since Im all alone
Im talking to myself
I know youre out there somewhere
Having fun with someone else

But a distant voice of hope
Echo from within, sayin
(Dont give up)
(Your ship is coming in)

Though my ships alone
Ill play right to the end
Im crying outside
Heavens door
Wont you let me back in

Youll never know
What Ive been through
Let your love shine in again
This time Ill shine with you
