One More Chance

I got up this morning feeling
A new chapter is about to start
My life is far from over
So why dwell in the past?

There is something different in the air
I cannot explain exactly what
But now I\'m alone once again
Many possibilities come to mind.

It’s about time I discover
How the decisions I make today
May impact the rest of my life
These are critical days ahead of me
My maturity needs to shine.

I have always given all of me
Not thinking about what I need or want
This has not worked well for me
\'Cause when it\'s over, I fall apart.

This time things will be different
I can’t afford to waste more time
I must think of myself as someone
Worthy of love and happiness for once.

I\'m leaving the door open
Though just a window will suffice
I welcome a fresh cool gentle breeze
To erase those sad memories from my past.

I am blessed with some good qualities
Not everything about me is bad
I\'ll enjoy the life ahead of me 
It’s the only chance I\'ve got
Because there’re people and places
I am pushing myself to find.

And as I make room for new experiences
Who knows, maybe I\'ll be blessed to find
The one who\'ll spark in me a desire
Someone who\'ll care for me at last.
