Chances

I've been given a chance

to love you

I've been given a chance

to live my life with you

Too many days

of empty ways

and trying to justify

Keeping my hopes on the castle in the sky

I've been given a chance

to open these doors

I've been given a chance

to let my heart soar

Beyond the sky

through heaven's eyes

I've learned to recognize

You could've gone by so easily

I had a date with destiny

Black and white photographs

caught the moment we laughed through the night

It was plain for all the see

how much you meant to me

So many memories I have in the moonlight

I remember the days

through the tears how I prayed in the shadows

waiting for the light to shine

hiding sorrow in red wine

I had to let go

to open my heart and soul

Beyond the sky

through heaven's eyes

Thank God I recognized

It's not enough to be at the right place at the right time

You've got to know

Through the fire

risk your pride to find some chances

Through desires

don't stray form taking chances

When you feel

deep inside you to take chances

Walk the wire

to the future and just grab all the chances
