Taking A Chance On Love Lyrics


Here I go again
I'm hearing trumpets blow again
All aglow again
Taking a chance on love
Here I sink again
I'm getting in the pink again
On the brink again
Taking a chance on love
This game I'm taking a crack at
Sure needs good love with me
And so I'm taking a whack at
Any black cat that I see
Things are mending now
I see a rainbow blending now
We'll have a happy ending now
Taking a chance on love
Take a chance
Oh yeah

I'm walkin' 'round with a horseshoe
And in clover I lie
While Mr. Rabbit, of course you
Better kiss your foot goodbye
Here I slip again
I'm gonna take that dip again
I've got my grip again
Taking a chance on love
And I'm on the ball again
I'm riding for a fall again
I'm gonna give my all again
Taking a chance on love
I thought that cards were a frame-up
That I never would try
But now I'm taking the game up
And the ace of hearts is high
Oh boy, I'm booked again
I'm in the swim and hooked again
This goose of mine is cooked again
Taking a chance on love
We'll have a happy ending now
Taking a chance on love
On love, ooh, on love

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Anita O'Day (October 18, 1919 - November 23, 2006) was an American jazz singer. Few female jazz singers matched the hard-swinging and equally hard-living Anita O'Day for sheer exuberance and talent in all areas of jazz vocals. Her improvising, wide dynamic tone, and innate sense of rhythm made her more than just another big-band canary. At a time when most female vocals tended to emphasize the sweet timbres of their voice, she chose to emphasize a path blazed by the one major jazz singer who emphasized message over medium - Billie Holiday.
