THE CHANCE

When those girls walked in together
It got mighty hot in here
They could not have been more different
Both were beauties, that was clear

One was tall, short raven hair
A tattooed work of art
Sure’d like to get a better view
Of the wings over her heart

Her friend was small, with bright blue eyes
Honey hair hung long and loose
A man could count himself quite blessed
If he had the chance to choose

~~~*Chorus*~~~
I’m gonna take a chance
Ask one to dance
Maybe this will be my night
Maybe just tonight
Maybe all my life
If the chance turns out alright 
Gotta take the chance and try
~~*~~

I saw her at the theater
Her red hair caught my eye
When she looked up, and smiled at me
My collar got too tight

She said I've never seen a man
Turn brighter than this hair
As we stood and laughed about it
I chose to take a dare

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~
Oh…
Perhaps I will get lucky
There’s a possibility 
I’m the kind of man
That will take the chance
Given opportunity
Whether it’s a date
She just wants to play
Maybe she’s my destiny
I don’t know who she is yet
Gotta take the chance to see
~~*~~

~~~*Final Chorus*~~~
I’m gonna take a chance
See if she has plans
Maybe this will be my night
Maybe just tonight 
Maybe all my life
If the chance turns out alright
Gotta take the chance and try
~~*~~
