Bad Salad - The Second Calling lyrics

What would you do If you had one more day To make things fine To make them okay A second chance to fix your life To not throw the dice For thinking twice Not enter that car Your home wasn't far You had someone there But you filled your emptiness in a bar So would you have said you loved her that night Held on to your children Spoken your last goodbyes Just one more day To say what's inside For mending the mess that you left behind I've been so wrong and all the while I felt so right The many things you learn when your beloved ones cry No room for lies if you're to live your life in time I was too selfish to see that I dug my own grave Shunning the ones who loved me My choices led me to my end And the words I spoke couldn't be unsaid The ones I hurt couldn't heal through my fame Conquer everyone, anywhere Such a pleasant man pretending to care I denied my beliefs to believe in only myself I've been so wrong and all the while I felt so right The many things you learn when your beloved ones cry No room for lies if you're to live your life in time I used to have beautiful dreams on my darkest days And look her in the eyes and smile We all have to pay our debts somehow Better late than now I've been so wrong and all the while I felt so right The many things you learn when your beloved ones cry No room for lies if you're to live your life in time How many chances does a man have to redeem himself So many I let get away I blew them all too well But I'm still here to face my demons or to suffer for my sins When the sun is on your back To turn around and face the light isn't an easy task Inside it feels like something's urging Time to come back or keep moving on Suddenly the answers seem to be gone No need for answers when the questions are wrong If I open my eyes and get back to me For this one last time all I want is to see My beautiful wife smiling down at me Saying "you're here today, make it count, live your stay" Oh if I had one more day
