Chorus:
   Give me half a chance to make you love me
   Give me half a chance to make you stay
   Give me half a chance before you leave me
   Half a chance before you turn and walk away
  
   I'm holdin' on just like you told me
   I put my heart right on the line
   You know your love it really sold me
   But I never had the chance to make you mine
  
   Chorus
  
   You said you'd never say it's over
   Well I guess my heart can't beat your pride
   You said I'd always be your lover
   But you're gone and my tears still haven't dried
  
   Chorus
  
   Half a chance before you turn and walk away
