Take A Chance Lyrics

I’ve been watching
a familar scene
the lives of two lovers
with a haphazard dream
I’ve heard some promises
I would not hold them to
their hearts beat the patterns
that guide them through, and he says,
“don’t be down on me
oh you don’t know what I can be
please take a chance on me”

There’s one more wash
at the laundromat
there’s a kid in her stroller
and an ache in her back
he might be the answer
what clock would they deny
that slows down this moment
in the blink of an eye, when she says,
“Hold this dream for me
oh, your heart can set you free
just take a chance on me”

Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance, take a chance, take a chance on me

If you think I’m just standing still
somebody’s tellin you lies
don’t you burn like me, down to the core
to get at what’s achin’ inside?
you can’t hide

Surely the thought has crossed her mind
that he’ll get her nowhere, in one half the time
some dreams are sacred, and some don’t stand a chance
it’s the heat of the moment, the rush of romance
when he says,
“girl, you’ll always be the bluest sky I’ll ever see
just take a chance on me”

Take a chance, take a chance, take a chance,
take a chance, take a chance on me
