when good times seemed rare
well this one came to me outta no where
i’m done wasting time
because you know she’s gonna be mine

i played on in the game
but all the women
they all were the same
i’d light a cigarette
to cover whiskey
i smell on their breath

well than once you see here
well your gonna lover her
don’t you understand that she’s like no other
done some living and i’ve made my mistakes
can’t you see she’s just a chance that i’ll take

i’ve lived my share of dreams
but I can tell’ya
things just ain’t what they seemed
i’d wait my days through
to have a minute
or lifetime with you

well than once you see here
well your gonna lover her
don’t you understand that she’s like no other
done some living and i’ve made my mistakes
can’t you see she’s just a chance that i’ll take
