I've taken a chance, it's more than I have before   When I look at you girl, I don't need no more   I can't understand these feelings of mine   Because of you it's gonna be alright      You know that chance it don't often come   This world it gets you and keeps you on the run   I'd messed around and wasted my time   But someone like you (girl) is so hard to find      These days will soon be past   But memories I know will last   Of the times I spend with you   Babe I know what I been told   But there's something here that I can hold   And I know because of you
