One Last Chance

James Morrison · James Morrison [2007]

No, oh



In my life I don't mean much to anyone

I lost my way, can't go back anymore

Once I had everything, now it's gone

Don't tell me again 'cause I've heard it all before



Some people say that I'm not worth it

I've made mistakes but nobody's perfect

Guess I give it a try



I got one last chance to get myself together

I can't lose no more time it's now or never

And I try to remember who I used to be

I got one last chance to get myself together



Time has come for me to change again

I can't carry on like this I will lose my friends

Don't say that you have given up on me

Just give me the time and space to heal my head



Some people say that I'm not worth it

I've made mistakes but nobody's perfect

I guess I'll give it a try



I got one last chance to get myself together

I can't lose no more time it's now or never

And I try to remember who I used to be

I got one last chance to get myself together



Oh

And I don't want to be misunderstood

I've got to take this chance and make it into something good



Oh

Some people say that I'm not worth it

I've made mistakes but nobody's perfect

Guess I'll give it a try



I got

I got one last chance to get myself together

No I can't lose no more time it's now or never

I got one last chance to get myself together

I can't lose no more time it's now or never

And I try to remember who I used to be

I got one last chance to get myself together



I got one last chance

Well you know it's all I need

Just one last chance
