Half a Chance Lyrics by Alexi Lalas

Ginger

Oh, yeah
I watch you as you watch the world go by
With a lonesome heart and a suspicious eye
Time after time how you cover up your smile
You'd like laugh out loud, but it's not your style
Sometimes what you need is hard to come by
Sometimes all you need is just a step behind
Give me half a chance to show you somethin' different
Half a chance to make you come alive
Half a chance, you know I'm gonna take it
And I'm not gonna waste it 'cause if half a chance is all I got
Then maybe there's a chance for us tonight
I see you with some stories to tell
Everyone is listenin', but you hide them so well
Lookin' for direction, but too afraid to ask
Dreamin' of the future, but livin' in the past
Sometimes what you need is hard to come by
Sometimes all you need is just a step behind
Give me half a chance to show you somethin' different
Half a chance to make you come alive
Half a chance, you know I'm gonna take it
And I'm not gonna waste it 'cause if half a chance is all I got
Then maybe there's a chance for us tonight
I'm all right with you
I'm all right with you
Sometimes what you need is hard to come by
Sometimes all you need is just a step behind
Give me half a chance to show you somethin' different
Half a chance to make you come alive
Half a chance, you know I'm gonna take it
And I'm not gonna waste it 'cause if half a chance is all I got
Then maybe there's a chance for us tonight
Oh, yeah
