Songtext Half the chance Dezeray's Hammer

Half the chance

There is a time to hope and a time to let go
And if we aren't working then I want to know
But don't string me along

Pre-Chorus:
But you hate and you cheat
And you lie to me
And you left me wide open with this responsibility
And I say,
"We'll never be the same"

Chorus:
I want you to wait a lifetime, forever
If I'd given you half the chance
And I'd wait a lifetime, forever
If you'd given me half the chance
I said, "No,
I won't be back again."

We tried and we tried in a union to hold
What was once so strong it started to unfold
There's nothing that could hurt me more
Repeat Pre-Chorus and Chorus

And I never gave the truth a chance to work it out instead
But you're never there
Enough for me to open up again
You can't help me find my way

I want you to wait a lifetime, forever
If I'd given you half the chance
And I'd wait a lifetime, forever
If you'd given me half the chance

I want you to wait a lifetime, forever
If I'd given you half the chance
I said, "No,
I won't be back again."
