Broadway Production 2015 Amazing Grace the Musical - A Chance for Me Lyrics
"A Chance for Me" is a song from the Broadway musical Amazing Grace performed by Tom Hewitt (Captain Newton).
CAPTAIN NEWTON: What is the worth of a fortune at times like this? Would that I could undo mistakes that I have made? Or buy back the opportunities I’ve missed? Now who is the victim in all of these games I’ve played?
Sometimes it seems, I’ve spent a lifetime Pursuing things that just won’t last What I believed would bring fulfillment Has become the chain that holds me fast
I’ve wasted all these years Choked back a thousand tears And stared in the face of my darkest fears I banished from my mind The pain of those I left behind But now I must see If there’s still a chance for me If I look back on my decisions These fateful things than I have done Have I pursued my own ambitions And forced these dreams and nightmares on my son
For someday soon the lord could come And demand my life from me Everything I’ve worked for Would become a memory
All the pride and achievement Would fall around his feet And these eyes that have been blinded For so long would finally see If there’s a chance for me
For one who can clearly see That there must be more than prosperity Can I ever return to these bridges I have burned? My heart’s only plea That god will decree That there’s still a chance for me.
