From the recording House of Love
Lyrics
I finally succeeded in writing a simple song. Now how can I get Willie Nelson to record it?
IF I EVER (Mike Borok)
If I ever get another chance
To be with you once more
I will show how much I love you
And never hurt you like before
I will say I’m truly sorry
For what I did or didn’t do
I will make it up to you
If I ever get another chance
If I ever get another job
I will show up every day
Put my back into the work
I won’t spend all my pay
And if there’s anything left over
I will give it all to you
That’s what I will do
If I ever get another job
Though I know my circumstances
Rarely favor second chances
I can still imagine that they do
If I ever get another life
I won’t throw it all away
Next time I will take time
To appreciate each day
If I could ask for anything
To take back or re-do
I’d want another chance with you
If I ever get another life
If I ever get another job
If I ever get another chance
