No More Last Chances
As you know, most songs and poetry are
born of emotion. My own works are no exception. Writing the words is cathartic,
therapeutic. There's been many a time I've written words and received some
pretty strong reactions from readers, whether those readers were relating to my
words and telling me how they applied to their own lives, or they were simply
voicing concern for my well-being because of the nature and depth of feeling
the words evoked. I suspect that this piece will do the same. I write this
prologue to assure you that I am fine, spiritually and emotionally. Often times
though it may take the words time to form, and although the moments I describe
in my songs may have already passed, the words are no less poignant for me.
Though the mood of this piece has
passed, I assure you, it took some time to find the words to express it. I hope
you enjoy it for what it is: a country song from the heart about love lost and
moving on. Thanks again, as always, for your continued love and support. I have
always written, and will always write for myself. That I get to share my words,
and myself, with you is a gift I cannot repay.
No More Last Chances
~
I'm done going through the motions
Letting you play with my emotions
Our love was supposed to last
Now it's one more thing in my past
I had given you all of me
You were just too blind to see
I wasn't a perfect man
But you had all that I am
I can't go on like this anymore
I can't put my heart on hold
I guess our story's been told
Instead
of a life of loving glances
It's
over with no more last chances
There was a time I'd have given all
Just to make sure you didn't fall
I always tried to give you my best
Turns out I was always failing your test
So now I have to draw a line
I can't keep my heart going
With so many tears still flowing
Instead
of a life of loving glances
It's
over with no more last chances
It didn't have to end this way
But your heart chose not to stay
I would have never believed
If you would have told me
That this is how it was gonna end
Instead
of a life of loving glances
It's
over with no more last chances
So now I'm the one walkin' away
When all I wanted to do was stay
I have to do what's best for me
Maybe one day you'll finally see
Could
have had a life of loving glances
Now
I'm gone and there's no more last chances
Instead
of a life of loving glances
It's
over with no more last chances
