Everybody gets a second chance,
Circumstance to say I'm sorry
I'd like to tell you in advance
Take my chance and tell you I'm sorry

A single failure, a little slip
A misdemeanour, a little trip
Does this condemn me? Lock me away?
Before you turn the key I have one more thing to say:
To make amends, maybe be friends.

Everybody gets a second chance,
Circumstance to say I'm sorry.
I'd like to tell you in advance
Take my chance and tell you
I'm sorry too

A little stumble, a little fall
Inconsequential, nothing at all.
Now there was someone I heard him say
That the best laid plans sometimes go astray.
So don't be surprised if I offer you no alibis

Everybody gets a second chance,
Circumstance to say I'm sorry
I'd like to tell you in advance
Take my chance and tell you I
Take my chance and tell you
I love you

(Interlude)

Everybody gets a second chance
Circumstance to say I'm sorry
I'd like to tell you in advance
Take my chance and tell you I'm sorry
Everybody gets a second chance
