THAT CHANCE
Kristina Clancy / John Clancy / Georgia Middleman

If I got close to you
I was afraid that I might lose you
I was afraid that you might see
How imperfect I can be

If I got close to you
What if I was not enough for you
And everything we built
Just crumbled at our feet

And oh, most people just won’t go there
But they ain’t they you and me
Choosing to be brave
When we didn’t have to be

I was taught to keep it in
Don’t show your heart to anybody
But you weren’t just anybody
And I couldn’t take that chance

You see, I just wanna hold you
Baby, I just need to see you
And I just wanna to hear you
Tell me everything’s okay

And oh, most people just won’t go there
But they ain’t they you and me
Choosing to be brave
When we didn’t have to be

We didn’t have to stick around
We didn’t have to tell the truth
We didn’t have to fight so hard
But that’s just what we do

And oh, most people just won’t go there
But they ain’t they you and me
Choosing to be brave
When we didn’t have to be
