Lyrics
1st Verse
Well I picked up a broken pencil, from the console that sat between my seats
I wrote down my name and number, on a matchbook, I found laying at my feet
I placed it on her icy windshield
Then I drove into the night
I've been told to not take chances, but this one felt so right
After all, a chance is just a chance
And if you'll never take it,
It might be your last
CHORUS
I'm taking CHANCES
That I never took before
I'm crossing over the lines
That I once stopped for
Yea, I don't know why I waited for so long
A chance is just a try
And trying can't be wrong
I'm taking CHANCES
2nd Verse
Well almost a week went by, and I must admit, I forgot what I had done
I had just sat down for dinner, said my grace, and then the phone begun
I didn't recognize the number
But I answered anyway
She said, I think you left your matches on my car the other day
And I'm sorry that I took so long to call
I've never taken CHANCES
Tonight I climbed that wall
Repeat CHORUS
Musical Bridge:
Repeat CHORUS
TAG
Well I picked up a broken pencil, from the console that sat between my seats
I wrote down my name and number, on a matchbook, I found laying at my feet
