Second Chances
We all want second chances
A chance at being free
A chance to take
Our measure here
And see what we can be
The dance, it isn't over
Till the last note has been played
We bow and thanks
And walk back home
To see what we have made
The mirror shows the message
You can't deny the time
Those tracks you trace
Upon your face
While waiting for a sign
If chances were like highways
A map would bring you home
There'd nеver be
A detour sign
As you drivе on alone
Chances are like crystal
They shatter when they fall
You cannot bend
The hands of time
You'll never save them all
You juggle aspiration
And balance it with pain
No matter how
The drought drags on
They'll always come a rain
For life is but a highway
Beneath tomorrows skies
The winds of time
Will wash away
The ache of all goodbyes
Our chances live in children
They'll grow beyond our reach
Our purpose turns
From self to all
Our message is to teach
