Risk

i'd rather stand on the edge of a cliff

and hang my toes over a bit

and then jump when they dare me

even if it scares me, and i'd get hurt.

I'd rather build my wings on the way down,

and do my best not to fall to the ground

and then laugh at my mistakes

cause there only lessons i'll learn.

I'd rather burn with desire deep in my soul

and love like a fire that's outta control

and laugh and dance and hope and chance and kiss.

I'd rather live my whole life with a sense of abandon,

squeeze every drop out no matter what happens

and not wonder what I've missed

I'd rather risk.

Well, I guess i could just play it safe

and forget about love hope and faith

with my eye on the shoreline

keepin my boat tied and stayin home.

Oh but i'd never discover new land

by keeping my feet on the sand

i'd rather set sail and get carried away by the storm.

I'd rather burn with desire deep in my soul

and love like a fire that's outta control

and laugh and dance and hope and chance and kiss.

I'd rather live my whole life with a sense of abandon

squeeze every drop out no matter what happens

and not wonder what i've missed

i'd rather risk, i would rather risk

i'd rather burn with desire deep in my soul

and love like a fire thats outta control

live my whole life with the sence of abandon

squeeze every drop out no matter what happens

and i'd wonder what i would miss

oh i just can't resist the chance to risk

love and love and laugh and dance and for the chance and kiss

i'd rather risk, i'd rather risk i'd rather risk,i'd rather risk
