Taking My Chances

(album: The Sherry Lee Show - 2023)

(Now, next on our show
We're go right along with a request
It's called "Taking My Chances")

Today a friend told me
You'd asked about me
And said you were lonely
And you have been true

You want a new chance now
You proved you are true
But I'm taking my chances
With somebody new

I'd still like to have you
No need to deny
But in this game of love, dear
The odds are too high

I know I must gamble
For love that is true
But I'm taking my chances
With somebody new (All boys now)

I know life's a gamble
For better or worse
And we take a chance for
A blessing or curse

Well, I took my chance, dear
And I gave you my heart
But I'm a good loser
I'll take a new start

I'd still like to have you
No need to deny
But in this game of love, dear
The odds are too high

I know I must gamble
For love that is true
But I'm taking my chances
With somebody new

(Oh, thank you, boys)
