if I gave myself a chance

the day started out as normal
the way that most days do
my mind was past informal
when I caught a look at you
I knew in an instant
that all my dreams came true
my heart was so insistent
but I didn't have a clue

          look at me
          I'm not so bad
          I could be the best
          you ever had
          we could be the greatest
          circumstance
          if I gave myself a chance
