Let’s give ourselves another chance to fall in love
A long time now I’ve played around to reckless
Going out with friends and leaving you so blue
And you’re passing up a chance we could be happy
But I still care for you though you have been untrue

I’ve counted every minute since you left me
Hoping praying that you could see the light
I know a long dark street can sure get mighty lonesome
Let’s give ourselves another chance to fall in love

Don’t keep on doing things that you’ll be sorry for
All those honky tonks will fill your life with shame
I told my heart that I’ve quit playing reckless
And I see a better chance to live again
