A single failure, a little slip
A misdemeanor, 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
Everybody gets a second chance
Second chance 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
Everybody gets a second chance
Second chance to say I'm sorry
I'd like to tell you in advance
Take my chance and tell you I'm sorry
Everybody gets a second chance
Second chance to say I'm sorry
I'd like to tell you in advance
I'll take my chance and tell you I'm
Take my chance and tell you I love you
Oh, baby
Everybody gets a second chance
Second chance to say I'm sorry
I'd like to tell you in advance
I'll take my chance and tell you I'm sorry
Everybody gets a second chance
Second chance to say I'm sorry
I'd like to tell you in advance
I'll take my chance and tell you I'm sorry
Everybody wants a second chance
Everybody gets a second chance
