Second Chances Lyrics by Better Luck Next Time

Start from Skratch

2008

[Verse 1]
Follow me thru' my tale of this one boy and this one girl
And I’ll show you simple mistakes and how they lead to this boy’s heartache

[Verse 2]
Now this heartache’s like a landslide falling faster every time I take a listen to what you say
Is it safe now? I just cannot stay

[Pre-Chorus]
And now there is no doubt, I’m all inside out
Now there is no doubt, I’m all inside out and I know

[Chorus]
There’s no time left for second chances
I’m left here on my own, defying fear
Will I be better off without you here?
There’s no time left for second chances
I’m left here on my own, defying fear
Will I be better off without you here?

[Verse 3]
So let’s talk about stories of our past-time glory
Let’s take on the world and give it back, just you and me girl
This could last all day and never ever fade away
So let’s give it one last try and let the clock run down before we say goodbye
Before we say goodbye

[Bridge]
You took time and kept your future bright
But I’ll always know that you and I stay in this together
You and I stay in this together
You and I stay in this together
You and I stay in this together ‘cause I know

[Chorus]
There’s no time left for second chances
I’m left here on my own, defying fear
Will I be better off without you here?
There’s no time left for second chances
I’m left here on my own, defying fear
Will I be better off without you here?

[Outro]
Will I be better off without you here?
