julie roberts – the chance lyrics
“the chance”
i found a book that my mama kept
filled with secrets she hid
and in a dusty old attic, one mornin’ i read
about a woman i never met
who had dreams just like mine
with every page that i turned, the words came alive
[chorus:]
wish i could roll out of town like a run-away train
i’ll do as i dare, let them call me insane
i’ll never sit on the sidelines of life, i’ll dance every dance
if i just had the chance
a tear fell on that faded page
’cause this was somebody else
not the mama i knew who never thought of herself
but the times, they were different then
and lines just didn’t get crossed
and these words that she wrote, they somehow got lost
[chorus:]
wish i could roll out of town like a run-away train
i’ll do as i dare, let them call me insane
i’ll never sit on the sidelines of life, i’ll dance every dance
if i just had the chance
the chance that she never had
is now the gift that is mine
and our here on this road, i’m makin’ up for lost time
yeah, i am my mother’s child
and tonight in this car, i’ve got words in suitcase and dreams in my heart
as i roll out of town like a run-away train
i’ll do as i dare, let them call me insane
i’ll never sit on the sidelines of life, i’ll dance every dance
while i still have the chance
i’ll never sit on the sidelines of life, i’ll dance every dance
while i still have the chance
