Lyrics
Take a Chance
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You take a chance on an airplane
You take a chance when you cross the street
You take a chance when you love somebody
When you're standing near the heat
You take a chance when you're honest
You take a chance when you tell lies
You take a chance when you trust somebody
When you look 'em in the eyes
Take a chance on me
Take a chance on me
I'm exactly what you see honey
Take a chance on me
You take a chance when you're indecisive
You take a chance when you're aloof
You take a chance when you judge somebody
When you've really got no proof
You take a chance when you refuse to hear
You take a chance when you're unkind
You take a chance when you refuse to grow up baby
You end up left behind
Take a chance on me
Take a chance on me
I'm exactly what you see honey
Take a chance on me
You take a chance when you're ruthless
You take a chance when you're cruel
You take a chance when you make a vow babe
To be nobody's fool
You take a chance when you're distant
You take a chance when you live inside
You take a chance when someone loves you
And you leave them with no pride
Take a chance on me
Take a chance on me
I'm exactly what you see honey
Take a chance on me
Oh take a chance on me
Take a chance on me
I'm exactly what you see honey
Take a chance on me
