Just One More Chance

Peggy Lee · Other Songs - Peggy Lee

It was just one of those things

Just one of those crazy flings

One of those bells that now and then rings

Just one of those things



It was just one of those nights

One of those fabulous flights

A trip to the moon on gossamer wings

Just one of those things



If we'd thought a bit, of the end of it

When we started painting the town

We'd have been aware that our love affair

Was too hot, not to cool down



So goodbye, bye, bye, bye, dear and Amen

Here's hoping we meet now and then

It was great fun

But it was just one of those things



If we'd thought a bit, of the end of it

When we started painting the town

We'd have been aware that our love affair

Was too hot, not to cool down



So goodbye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye dear and Amen

Here's hoping we meet now and then

It was great fun

But it was just one of those things, just one of those things

Just one of those things, just one of those things

Just One More Chance

Peggy Lee's 1953 recording of 'Just One More Chance' stands as a quintessential example of the romantic ballad style that defined her early career. Delivered with her signature husky voice and intimate delivery, the track captures the vulnerability and longing characteristic of mid-century jazz and pop. While the song is often associated with the film 'The Lady and the Tramp,' Lee's version predates the movie and was released on her debut album, establishing her reputation as a vocalist capable of conveying deep emotion through minimal instrumentation. The recording showcases her ability to blend traditional pop sensibilities with the jazz influence prevalent in her repertoire, making it a staple of her discography that continues to resonate with listeners of classic American music.
