Chances

Somehow, somewhere along the way
I've hurt this past mending
without even trying
but all I need is a chance
a chance to try again

Hiding, waiting in the back of my mind
is this love for you
bursting forth in absence
and all I need is a chance
a chance to prove it

Angry, depressed for so long
you're reluctant to let me in
I understand that pain
but all I need is a chance
a chance to love you
