2nd

What do you do when love comes along
And offers your heart a chance to move on
With no guarantees, no safety net
You trust what you feel, you take that first step

Just close your eyes
Reach for the moment
Before it slips by
Here is your second chance
Take it and fly

The weight of the world, the need to survive
Has made you believe, that you've got no right
Then out of the blue, you meet someone
Who offers a place, warm as the sun

Just close your eyes
Reach for the moment
Before it slips by
Here is your second chance
Take it and fly

- Trisha Yearwood -

Never believed in the second chance
too hard to conceive...too hard that dance
The pain and the heartache are washing away
to begin anew and abandon the fray

It's too tempting too sweet
that nectar, that love
too hard to compete
cannot give up

Will hurt come again
if patterns hold true
it's more likely than not
what should one do

Risk it again
with great risk there be
the great reward
perhaps this time for me

Valentine

I think about things that won't ever be
and can't see the forest because of the tree
what if I can't be happy without
these things that will never...ever work out.

Choices made and history is written
decisions that divide and dissect my world
no one will care...or even listen

The path that I take is narrow...one way
you can't double back or from the path stray
almost to the curve beyond which you can't see
that left behind...that lost to me

I can't call for help...can't undo the done
along this path I go...a path made for one.

If it ends will it widen?
At the end might I find,
the Love that's escaped me, my valentine.
