The Chance Lyrics

Artist: Julie Roberts
Album: Julie Roberts

I found a book that my mama kept
Filled with secrets she hid
And in a dusty old attic, one morninâ‚¬â„¢ I read
About a woman I never met
Who had dreams just like mine
With every page that I turned, the words came alive

Wish I could roll out of town like a run-away train
Iâ‚¬â„¢ll do as I dare, let them call me insane
Iâ‚¬â„¢ll never sit on the sidelines of life, Iâ‚¬â„¢ll dance every dance
If I just had the chance

A tear fell on that faded page
â‚¬ËœCause this was somebody else
Not the mama I knew who never thought of herself
But the times, they were different then
And lines just didnâ‚¬â„¢t get crossed
And these words that she wrote, they somehow got lost

Wish I could roll out of town like a run-away train
Iâ‚¬â„¢ll do as I dare, let them call me insane
Iâ‚¬â„¢ll never sit on the sidelines of life, Iâ‚¬â„¢ll dance every dance
If I just had the chance

The chance that she never had
Is now the gift that is mine
And out here on this road, Iâ‚¬â„¢m makinâ‚¬â„¢ up for lost time
Yeah I am my motherâ‚¬â„¢s child
And tonight in this car
I got her words in my suitcase and her dreams in my heart

As I roll out of town like a run-away train
Iâ‚¬â„¢ll do as I dare, let them call me insane
Iâ‚¬â„¢ll never sit on the sidelines of life, Iâ‚¬â„¢ll dance every dance
While I still have the chance
Iâ‚¬â„¢ll never sit on the sidelines of life, Iâ‚¬â„¢ll dance every dance
While I still have the chance
