One Chance Lyrics - Singles - Janet Gabriel

One Chance, just one chance 

Could be all that we've got 

One Chance, just one chance 

To make things right 

Mary thought she had it all 

With her high flying job 

Thought she didn't need no man 

Or somebody to love 

Thinkin' happiness the same 

As Bulgari jewellry 

Now she wants back the man 

That gave her love and a ring 

But she left too much heartache 

And too much pain behind 

Now she's wondering what the future holds 

'Cos she's hitting 45 

See, sometimes all we have is 

Chorus 

---------- 

One Chance, just one chance 

To make things right, we all have 

One Chance, just one chance 

To make it right 

Oh! 

See Johnny and his Papa 

Eye to eye never see 

Had their difference in opinions 

They could never agree 

Last time they were together they did not speak 

And it makes you wonder 

Is it so hard to forgive? 

Now Papa's dead and gone 

And Johnny's full of regret, Yes he is 

Of the joys they never shared 

And the things they never said 

See, sometimes all we have is 

Chorus 

---------- 

One Chance, just one chance 

To make things right, we all have 

One Chance, just one chance 

To make it right 

Rap by Stock! 

So why do so many people put off 

What they need to do today 

And they're the same people that complain 

When life aint going their way 

What more can I say? 

Chorus 

---------- 

One Chance, just one chance 

To make things right, we all have 

One Chance, just one chance 

To make it right 

Mary wants her man back 

But it's much too late 

Johnny wants to speak to papa 

But he's gone away 

Hey! What you can do today 

Dont put it off till tomorrow 

'Cos it might be too late!
