Rick Steffen Given Half A Chance Lyrics

Jackie had stars in her eyes
And dreams that could last her forever
She thought she could find - the things that her mind
Had chosen A long time ago

Her visions of fortune and fame
Drove her to play all the games
With fools and with chance - but then romance
Came to her in such A strange way

Given half A chance - but she didn'T say
Given half A chance -
Her dreams had collided with love laid B4 her invain
.... Sometimes our dreams - are stronger than feelings today

Jackie hid from life in her dreams
And slipped away from love in between
To A place filled with lies - & now in her eyes
Her emptyness is all one can see
And as the story unfolds - from youth til she'S wrinkled and old
She'Ll only find - as much as her mind-
Is willing to love and let go

Given half A chance - what would she say
Would she still make - the choices she made yesterday
Sometimes our dreams - are stronger than feelings today
