One Last Shot

Long story, for another place, another time.

A lost love has found its spark
A tiny glimmer of hope lies in the distance
What was once gone is slowly coming back
To my heart

I'll give you one last chance
One last shot
To take it all the way
You better give it everything you've got

To prove me wrong
That it's not a waste of time
With lips like heaven
And eyes like the rivers

I'll give you one last chance
One last shot
To take it all the way
You better give it everything you've got

And make it right
Take away all the pain
All the hurt
And make me see the reasons to smile

I'll give you one last chance
One last shot
To take it all the way
You better give it everything you've got

We'll see this through
Fix what was wrong
And make us see what's right
So close your eyes
Take my hand
And I'll lead us through that darkness
And into light

I'll give you one last chance
One last shot
To take it all the way
You better give it everything you've got

Author's Note

I'm sure some of you are gonna say something about the stanza that sticks out, but I did do that on purpose.

AN intreasting piece. I like the flow...very song like. It appears at first you are givein someone another shot...a fail relationship? but what got me was in the description you put another place, another time. Do you see yourself dreaming this about someone or evan hope that oneday in the future it may happen? All in all a great piece which I really enjoyed reading!

I actually like the odd stanza.. for some reason the extra length speaks of the passion to make it work...
A nice write, I found the constantly repetitive verse a little too.. repetitive! I like the idea of it repeating.. just not quite so many!
Anyway, a nice write!

:) No, every stanza was perfect in here hehe! Ya hit it right on the head! This has the real power of love and forgiveness in it. Man, if someone gives u a second chance, you'd better grab onto it with your life, cause it's all you've got left hehe. Ur work is very awesome. Very compassionate and definitely full of life and heart :) Excellent job here!
