You told me you needed some space
But I didn't mean forever
Yeah, you were sure in a hurry to leave this place
I just wanted a change of weather

I should've followed you there
Ooh, you couldn't read my mind
I should've listened closer, babe
Yes, all you heard was goodbye

If you believe in a second chance
Just reach out and take my hand
We'll fan the flames of an old romance
I'll be your girl, and I'll be your man
If you believe in a second chance

Well, how did you like livin' in L.A.
Well, I guess it was alright
Now that you're back, are you plannin' to stay
Yeah, the thought had crossed my mind

I heard that you were engaged
I heard you were too
It didn't work out with her
No, baby, he wasn't you

If you believe in a second chance
Just reach out and take my hand
We'll fan the flames of an old romance
I'll be your girl, and I'll be your man
If you believe in a second chance

If you believe in a second chance
Just reach out and take my hand
We'll fan the flames of an old romance
I'll be your girl, and I'll be your man
If you believe in a second chance

I'll be your girl, and I'll be your man
If you believe in a second chance

Baby, do you believe
Yes, I believe
In a second chance
In a second chance

Do you believe
Yes, I believe
In a second chance
In a second chance

Ooh, baby, do you believe
Oh, yes, I believe
In a second chance
