One Chance Lyrics

ONE CHANCE
S. Meissner/F. Mollin

The well has run dry
I'm staring at the empty s***e
I can tell that it's over
Gone without a trace
But this habit's so hard to break
When there's so much at stake
I don't want to chance it
And leave it up to fate

One moment held by a thread
One time to hold on to love
If I can see my way clear
Then I'll drive into the night

Just give me one chance
Can't let it go on this way
Just give me one chance
Gotta get out of the rain
Just give me one chance
You're the one who could kill this pain
We're worlds apart
And we're miles away
I can't make it another day
You and I have been runnin'
Runnin' all our lives
We should have seen this comin'
Should have been no surprise

One moment held in time
The silence starts to tell the truth
But I'd go through it again
If it could take me back to you
Just give me one chance
Can't let it go on this way
Just give me one chance
Gotta get out of the rain
Just give me one chance
You're the one who could kill this pain
We're worlds apart
And we're miles away
I can't make it another day

When a feeling this strong
Burns so long
There's a reason to try to keep it alive
