Second Chance Lyrics by Y-O-U (band)

Flashlights

2007

[Verse 1]
She was gone too soon
Like a secondhand record
By a band that you really love
And the change I thought was coming
Wasn't coming 'less something caught her
Like a brand she'd heard of
She was part of that machine
Red-handed at the scene
No acquittal 'cause it fit like a glove
There were ropes 'round her case
With alarms just in case
Were a way, she escaped up above
[Chorus]
Now she's running down south
With a song in her mouth
And when shе gets there
Wе'll all dance, yeah, we'll all dance
And it won't feel nothin' like a second chance
Ain't nothin' like a second chance
[Verse 2]
There were the high school friends
Always caught up in trends
Who were stuck like unfortunate tattoos
And the evil stepmother
Who shared only with her brothers
The fortune she fell into
Her father thought his daughter
Was an angel 'til he caught her
Found out all those rumors were true
She begged 'em all for forgiveness
But she knew she'd never live this
Down, giving those devils their due
[Chorus]
Now she's running down south
With a song in her mouth
And when she gets there
We'll all dance, yeah, we'll all dance
And it won't feel nothin' like a second chance
Ain't nothin' like a second chance
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
I was third on her list
And I was quick to insist
That she came in, it would be short and sweet
She brought a couple 45s
Brought back memories of drives
That we took before she moved off our street
We listened all the way through
Sang the choruses too
'Bout holding hands at night in the heat
And when the record started scratching
I could tell by her reaction
That night would make my failure complete
[Chorus]
Now we're running down south
With a song in our mouths
And when we get there
We'll all dance, yeah, we'll all dance
And it won't feel nothin' like a second chance
Ain't nothin' like a second chance
[Outro]
We'll all dance, yeah, we'll all dance
And it won't feel nothin' like a second chance
Ain't nothin' like a second chance
