Janet Gabriel – One Chance lyrics

One Chance -- Janet Gabriel feat. Stock

One Chance, just one chance
Could be all that we've got
One Chance, just one chance
To make things right

Mary thought she had it all
With her high flying job
Thought she didn't need no man
Or somebody to love
Thinkin' happiness the same
As Bulgari jewellry
Now she wants back the man
That gave her love and a ring

But she left too much heartache
And too much pain behind
Now she's wondering what the future holds
Cause she's hitting 45
See, sometimes all we have is

Chorus
----------
One Chance, just one chance
To make things right, we all have
One Chance, just one chance
To make it right

Oh!
See Johnny and his Papa
Eye to eye never see
Had their difference in opinions
They could never agree
Last time they were together they did not speak
And it makes you wonder
Is it so hard to forgive?
Now Papa's dead and gone
And Johnny's full of regret, Yes he is
Of the joys they never shared
And the things they never said
See, sometimes all we have is

Chorus
----------
One Chance, just one chance
To make things right, we all have
One Chance, just one chance
To make it right

Rap by Stock!

So why do so many people put off
What they need to do today
And they're the same people that complain
When life aint going their way
What more can I say?

Chorus
----------
One Chance, just one chance
To make things right, we all have
One Chance, just one chance
To make it right

Mary wants her man back
But it's much too late
Johnny wants to speak to papa
But he's gone away
Hey! What you can do today
Don't put it off till tomorrow
Cause it might be too late!
