Chances
If you had a chance,
Wouldn't you spread your wings and fly?
If you had a chance,
Wouldn't you tell the world who you really are?
If you had a chance,
Wouldn't you tell the one you love most how you feel?
If you had one day to live,
Wouldn't you make the most of it?
If you had eternal life,
Wouldn't you beg for a friend who wouldn't die?
If you were on your dying breath,
Wouldn't you say Sorry to the one you hurt most in your life time?
If you had another chance at life,
Wouldn't you try your best?
