1/2 CHANCE [Ballad]

Verse: 
All I want is for you
to see me as I do
and give me half a chance
just a little fraction
a bit more action
more than just a glance

why do you think you can tell
that you know me so well
from miles and miles away
when we are so far apart
how do you know my heart?
or the things it feels today?

Chorus:
HALF A CHANCE TO SHOW
HALF A CHANCE TO GROW
HALF A CHANCE AND NOTHING MORE
HALF A CHANCE TO LAUGH
HALF A CHANCE JUST HALF
COULD MEAN THE WHOLE SCORE

Verse:
Don't stop before the start
put the horse before the cart
it never works that way at all
don't bring on the end
before we even begin
for even stars need time to fall

just hold on a little longer
feelings can grow stronger
and you could be happily surprised
things come to those who wait
your doubts will slowly fade
and turn into a love you never realized

Chorus:
HALF A CHANCE TO SHOW
HALF A CHANCE TO GROW
HALF A CHANCE AND NOTHING MORE
HALF A CHANCE TO LAUGH
HALF A CHANCE JUST HALF
COULD MEAN THE WHOLE SCORE
