Since you been gone
I feel my life slipping away
I look to the sky
And everything is turning gray

All I made was one mistake
How much more will I have to pay
Why can`t you think it over
Why can`t you forget about the past

When love makes this sound, babe
A heart needs a second chance
Don`t put me down, babe
Can`t you see I love you
Since you been gone
I`ve been in a trance
This heart needs a second chance
Don`t say it`s over
I just can`t say goodbye

So this is love
Standing in the pouring rain
I fooled on you
But she never meant a thing

And I know I ain`t got no right
To ask you to sympathize
But why can`t you think it over
Why can`t you forget about the past

When love makes this sound, babe
A heart needs a second chance
Don`t put me down, babe
Can`t you see I love you
Since you been gone
I`ve been in a trance
This heart needs a second chance
Don`t say it`s over
I just can`t say goodbye

I never loved her
I never needed her
She was willing
And that`s all there is to say
Don`t forsake me
Please don`t leave me now

A heart needs a second chance

Yeah, you`ve been gone
I`ve been in a trance
This heart needs a second chance
Don`t say it`s over
I just can`t say goodbye

Please forgive me and forget it
I was wrong and I admit it
Why can`t we talk it over
Why can`t we forget about
Forget about the past

A heart needs a second chance
When love makes this sound, babe
A heart needs a second chance
Don`t put me down, babe
Since you been gone
I`ve been in a trance
This heart needs a second chance
Don`t say it`s over
I just can`t say goodbye

A heart needs a second chance
When love makes this sound, babe
A heart needs a second chance
A heart needs a second chance
When love makes this sound, babe
