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 !!!

Lester Willis Young (August 27, 1909 – March 15, 1959), nicknamed "Pres" or "Prez", was an American jazz tenor saxophonist and sometime clarinetist.
Coming to prominence while a member of Count Basie's orchestra, Young was one of the most influential players on his instrument. In contrast to many of his hard-driving peers, Young played with a relaxed, cool tone and used sophisticated harmonies, using "a free-floating style, wheeling and diving like a gull, banking with low, funky riffs that pleased dancers and listeners alike".
