A Chance for Me

[CAPTAIN NEWTON]
Who would have ever believed it would come to this
Would that I could undo mistakes that I have made
Or buy back the opportunities I have missed
Now others are paying for all of these games I've played

Sometimes it seems I’ve spent a lifetime
Pursuing things that just won't last
What I believe would bring fulfillment
Has become the chain that holds me fast

I’ve wasted all these years
Choked back a thousand tears
And stared in my face of my darkest fears
I banished from my mind the pain of those I left behind
But now, we will see if there’s still a chance for me

What will I leave behind if God should come and take my life from me?
If everything I’ve worked for should become a memory
All my pride and achievement would fall around his feet
And a son I hardly know would be my only legacy

Is there a chance for me?
For one who can finally see
That there must be more than prosperity
Can I ever return to the bridges I have burned?
My heart's only plea, that you will decree
That there’s still a chance for me
