Another Chance
Living with my back against the wall
Nowhere but forward to fall
Well I close my eyes, somebody catch my breath
Oh, my Lord, let's get on board
The ride's gonna scare me to death, yeah
Oh, I don't wanna leave before my time is done
Don't wanna stick around when my race is run
I don't wanna go before they call my dance
Don't wanna die asking for another chance
Come help me, Poor Richard, won't you help me raise a glass?
Well, here's to me and here's to you, may your dreams all come to pass
Cruel trick of time is played in the wink of an eye
Heavens above don't need no shove, years go sailing by, yeah
Oh, I don't wanna leave before my time is done
Don't wanna stick around when my race is run
I don't wanna go before they call my dance
Don't wanna die asking for another chance, yeah
Another game of chance, a lifetime come and gone
I guess it's up to me, don't wanna sing another man's song
I wanna say what Grandma said, lying on her dying bed
"Yeah, I've been cheated, mistreated, don't have to sign out yet, yeah"
Oh, I don't wanna leave before my time is done
Don't wanna stick around when my race is run
I don't wanna go before they call my dance
Don't wanna die asking for another chance
No, not another chance
No, not another chance
Oh yeah
Nowhere but forward to fall
Well I close my eyes, somebody catch my breath
Oh, my Lord, let's get on board
The ride's gonna scare me to death, yeah
Oh, I don't wanna leave before my time is done
Don't wanna stick around when my race is run
I don't wanna go before they call my dance
Don't wanna die asking for another chance
Come help me, Poor Richard, won't you help me raise a glass?
Well, here's to me and here's to you, may your dreams all come to pass
Cruel trick of time is played in the wink of an eye
Heavens above don't need no shove, years go sailing by, yeah
Oh, I don't wanna leave before my time is done
Don't wanna stick around when my race is run
I don't wanna go before they call my dance
Don't wanna die asking for another chance, yeah
Another game of chance, a lifetime come and gone
I guess it's up to me, don't wanna sing another man's song
I wanna say what Grandma said, lying on her dying bed
"Yeah, I've been cheated, mistreated, don't have to sign out yet, yeah"
Oh, I don't wanna leave before my time is done
Don't wanna stick around when my race is run
I don't wanna go before they call my dance
Don't wanna die asking for another chance
No, not another chance
No, not another chance
Oh yeah
