I felt it   The wire touched my neck and   Then someone pulled it tighter   I never saw it coming      I started to black out and   Then someone said good morning   I took it as a warning   I should have seen it coming      So now I'll take a chance on   This thing we may have started   Intentional or not I   Don't think we saw it coming   It's all adding up to something      That as of some involvement   That as for our commitment   I think I see it coming   If we step out on that limb      My heart beat, beats me senselessly   Why's everything got to be so intense with me?   I'm trying to handle all this unpredictability   In all probability      It's a long shot and I say why not   If I say forget it, I know that I'll regret it   It's a long shot just to beat the odds   The chance is we won't make it      But I know if I don't take it   There's no chance   'Cause you're the best I've got   So take the long shot      I realize that there is all this starting   That we're both scared about but   We'll never see them coming   Throw caution to the wind and      We'll see which way it's blowing   And to this pulling on   We'll never see it coming   'Til it's much to close to stop      My heart beat, beats me senselessly   Why's everything got to be so intense with me?   I'm trying to handle all this unpredictability   And all probability      It's a long shot but I say why not   If I say forget it, I know that I'll regret it   It's a long shot just to beat the odds   The chance is we won't make it      But I know if I don't take it   There's no chance   'Cause I'm the best you got   So take the long shot      What a pleasant surprise   What a breath of fresh air   You knock the wind out of me   Blindsided and so unaware   Aha, aha, aha      Oh, I waited for fact to come of fiction   And you fit my description   I never saw you coming   But we'll make it even though      It's a long shot but I say why not   If I say forget it, I know that I'll regret it   It's a long shot just to beat the odds   The chance is we won't make it      But I know if I don't take it   There's no chance   'Cause you're the best I got   So take the long shot      You didn't expect this   Oh, you never saw me coming   You didn't expect this   Oh, you never saw this coming      I take the long shot   I take the long shot   Shot, shot, shot, shot   'Cause you're the best I got      Oh, I'm take this chance on you, baby   I'm take this chance on you, baby   I'm taking this chance
