[Verse 1]
Wish I didn't say the things I said
Wish I didn't act like I did
You were standin' there with your heavy heart
And I was too damn proud to listen
I still hear the slam of that old screen door
Like a gavel when the night comes in
I replay every word like a worn-out tape
Thinkin' how do I make this right again
[Chorus]
I just want a second chance
To be your friend, to hold your hand
Not the fool I was back then
Start over, try again
I know there's a better man
Somewhere underneath my skin
If you let me in, I'll show you him
Just a second chance to be your friend
[Verse 2]
You know all my worst and my best
You saw me at my rawest edge
I took your gentle heart for granted
Now I'm learnin' from every regret
I'm sorry feels so small, so late
Up against the hurt I've left
But if you ever feel that door unlock
I'd walk slow, I'd earn each step
[Chorus]
I just want a second chance
To be your friend, to hold your hand
Not the fool I was back then
Start over, try again
I know there's a better man
Somewhere underneath my skin
If you let me in, I'll show you him
Just a second chance to be your friend (oh, again)
[Bridge]
I can't change the past
But I can change who I am
If you ever call my name
I'll be standin' there, doin' the best I can
[Chorus]
I just want a second chance
To be your friend, to hold your hand
Leave the storm where it all began
Walk forward, not back again
I know there's a better man
I'm beggin' you to trust me then
If you let me in, I'll show you him
Just a second chance to be your friend
(Just a second chance) to be your friend
