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, her words came aliveWish I could roll out of town like a run-away train

I'll do as I dare, let them call me insane

Never sit on the sidelines of life, I'd dance every dance

If I just had the chanceA 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 lostWish I could roll out of town like a run-away train

I'll do as I dare, let them call me insane

Never sit on the sidelines of life, I'd dance every dance

If I just had the chanceThe chance that she never had

Is now the gift that is mine

And out here on this road, I'm makin' up for lost time

I am my mother's child and tonight in this car

I got her words in my suitcase

And her dreams in my heartAs I roll out of town like a run-away train

I'll do as I dare, let them call me insane

Never sit on the sidelines of life, I'll dance every dance

While I still have the chanceI'll never sit on the sidelines of life, I'll dance every dance

While I still have the chance
