A Special Chance

You and I took a special chance
The first time we met
We both knew enough of love,
And life, to understand that
Two people don't fall in love,
They grow into it, slowly -
And wed both been hurt before
By feelings that seemed too easily lost
But there was something between us
From the beginning, a unique harmony
That made us take that special chance.

You and I took a special chance
The first time we argued
After feeling hurt and sad,
And both of us trying to apologize
At the same time for disagreeing
Over such a small matter, we knew
That our relationship was worth more
Than anything that might come between us,
And we knew after that first time
That what we had together
Would see us through the hard times
And make us better appreciate the good,
Because we took that a special chance.

You and I took a special chance
The first time we said, I love you for we knew that
We would share stormy as well sunny times,
Laughter and tears, some dreams that would come beautifully true,
And others that would fade in our memories
And we knew in our hearts that our love
That our love deserved all the effort we could make
To fulfill our life together for we took that a special chance
And found a very special love.
