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 Chorus: Everybody gets a second chance The 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 (Chorus) Everybody gets a second chance The circumstance to say I'm sorry I'd like to tell you in advance I'll take my chance and tell you I Take my chance and tell you I love you (Chorus x2) Everybody wants a Everybody needs a Everybody gets a second chance
