(Verse 1)
Met him on a rainy day,
Didn’t say much, but he chose to stay
Watched me break, watched me bend
Still he came back again and again
Didn’t care ‘bout where I’d been
Took me in with a crooked grin
Funny how the quiet ones
End up being the strongest love
(Pre-Chorus)
I never thought I’d need someone
To see me clear, but say no words
Just be there when the world gets loud
And silence feels like hurt
(Chorus)
He’s not perfect, but he’s mine
A little wild, but mostly kind
He never runs when things go wrong
Just lays beside me all night long
I gave my heart without a plan
To the only one who’d understand
Some call it luck or circumstance
But I just call him Chance
(Verse 2)
He’d wait for me by the door
Even when I came home sore
He never asked for more than time
And space to sit just toe-to-thigh
We’d chase the wind in open fields
He'd always let me stop and heal
And when I cried, he’d just be near
No judgment, just an open ear
(Pre-Chorus)
He never promised anything
But gave me more than diamond rings
No vows, no lies, just steady ground
And love that never makes a sound
(Chorus)
He’s not perfect, but he’s mine
A little wild, but mostly kind
He never runs when things go wrong
Just lays beside me all night long
I gave my heart without a plan
To the only one who’d understand
Some call it luck or circumstance
But I just call him Chance
(Bridge – Reveal)
Years go by, he’s turning gray
Slower steps at end of day
And though he’s not the man you guessed—
He wore no shoes, he made no mess—
He had four paws, and fur so gold
A heart too big for me to hold
My first true love, my greatest dance…
My dog, my soul… my Chance
(Outro)
He’s wasn’t perfect, but he was mine
And I’ll love him for all of time
Some stories never go as planned—
But I’d still fall again for Chance
