Chance of a Lifetime

In a crowded place, I thought I saw your face. 

I stepped up my pace. I walked your way.

Caught up in the moment, I couldn’t hide my gaze.

I stood there amazed in your embrace.

***

Refrain:

For the rest of my life, I’m loving you.

I can’t think of anything, I’d rather do.

You were there in a vision. 

I waltzed you out from my dreams!

***

Tag:

In this chance of a lifetime, where winners are few.

My eyes are on the prize, and the prize is you!

***

I like how you move, and everything you do.

I saw your dress and style.  I heard you laugh and smile.

I had to take a chance. I asked to have this dance.

With your hand in mine, we closed our eyes.

***

For the rest of my life, I’m loving you.

I can’t think of anything, I’d rather do.

You were there in a vision.

I waltzed you out from my dreams!

***

In this chance of a lifetime, where winners are few.

My eyes are on the prize, and the prize is you!

***

Forever in your arms, is where I want to be.

Everything you are, is everything I need.

I breathe you in and love you.  I need you near to me.

Cause, when you’re near, you make my life complete.

***

For the rest of my life, I’m loving you.

I can’t think of anything, I’d rather do.

You were there in a vision.

I waltzed you out from my dreams!

***

In this chance of a lifetime, where winners are few.

My eyes are on the prize, and the prize is you!

***

And the prize is you!
