Another Chance - Howard Jones

So we re lookin out on the world and what do we see

Another screen full of horror, another atrocity

What can I do as simple man who wants to make a difference

Wants to do what he can, not just talk about it

Stone drops in a pond, stirs the sediment, sends ripples, to the edge of the

world

A teenage boy with a rubber band around his arm, finds a vein and a back road

into the dark and stops the pain

Another chance, another day to mend, to change, to start again

A young woman with a deadly belt around her waist

Steps on the bus with no regret for her life and the lives she will take

A leader in the rapture of his absolute right will not connect with a young man

wrapped in the flag, in a black bag

Voice raised in a room of silence, conquers fear, takes action, starts the

journey, starts the journey

Baby born with an open mind and a trusting face has no regard for distinction,

says to have hope is to be human

Another chance, another day to mend, to change, to start again

Another chance, another day

Another chance, another day

To mend, to change, to start again

Another chance, another day

Another chance, another day

To mend, to change, to start again

Another chance, another day to mend, to change, to start again
