lyrics

TAKE A CHANCE ON ME
NOW I'M NOT, CALLING YOU OUT
THERE'S A CHANCE THAT IT'S JUST ME
LATELY YOU'VE BEEN HANGIN' AROUND
AND SMILIN’ IN MY COMPANY
I SLOW DOWN WHEN WE TALK
I NEVER WANTED YOU TO SEE
THE NERVOUS RUSH I KEEP MY COOL
BY HIDING WHAT YOU'RE DOING TO ME

NOW IF YOU WANT ME TO STAY
THROW YOUR WORRIES AWAY
THAT'D BE FINE BY ME
WELL I'VE BEEN SENDING YOU CLUES
HOPING MAYBE YOU'LL CHOOSE
TO TAKE A CHANCE ON ME

I'VE BEEN REHEARSIN', ALL MY LINES
DECIDING WHAT I WANT TO SAY
BUT ALL THIS COULD COME OUT WRONG
AND PUSH YOU EVEN FURTHER AWAY
'CAUSE AFTER ALL WE'VE BEEN THROUGH
I'M AFRAID THAT YOU WON'T UNDERSTAND
WE GET ALONG SO MUCH BETTER
THAN YOU AND YOUR GIRLFRIEND

NOW IF YOU WANT ME TO STAY
THROW YOUR WORRIES AWAY
THAT'D BE FINE BY ME
WELL I'VE BEEN SENDING YOU CLUES
HOPING MAYBE YOU'LL CHOOSE
TO TAKE A CHANCE ON ME
BABY GIVE ME A SIGN
I'VE PUT MY HEAR ON THE LINE
I CAN GUARANTEE
I WON'T BE BREAKING YOUR HEART
I'VE BEEN IN LOVE FROM THE START
NOW TAKE A CHANCE ON ME

NOW I'M NOT CALLING YOU OUT
THERE'S A CHANCE THAT ITS JUST ME
BUT ALL THESES LADIES YOU'VE BEEN HANGIN' AROUND
WILL NEVER GIVE YOU WHAT YOU NEED
YOU KNOW I'M NOT, THE BOSSY TYPE
I'LL NEVER TELL YOU WHAT TO DO
BUT HERE'S A HINT, OPEN YOUR EYES
I'M STANDING RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU

NOW IF YOU WANT ME TO STAY
THROW YOUR WORRIES AWAY
THAT'D BE FINE BY ME
WELL I'VE BEEN SENDING YOU CLUES
HOPING MAYBE YOU'LL CHOOSE
TO TAKE A CHANCE ON ME
BABY GIVE ME A SIGN
I'VE PUT MY HEAR ON THE LINE
I CAN GUARANTEE
I WON'T BE BREAKING YOUR HEART
I'VE BEEN IN LOVE FROM THE START
TAKE A CHANCE ON ME
