You Gotta Take Chances

[Chorus]
You gotta take chances
If you're gonna find true love
You gotta take chances
Girl, everybody does
You gotta take chances
If you're gonna find the one you need
You gotta take chances
In this I do believe

[Verse 1]
I can tell you want me, girl
But you keep on holding back
(Keep on holding back)
I'm for real in what I feel
But you're puttin' on an act
Love is a gamble that everyone must take
Even though sometimes a heart might break
Your heart says "yes"
But your mind keeps saying "no"
(Mind keeps saying "no")
But you've got to plant the seed
Before true love can grow
So don't deny your heart, girl, put your trust in me
And find out, just how good true love can be

[Chorus]
You gotta take chances (you gotta take chances)
If you're gonna find true love
You gotta take chances (you gotta take chances)
Everybody does
You gotta take chances (you gotta take chances)
If you're gonna find the one you need
You gotta take chances (you gotta take chances)
Wow, in this I do believe

[Verse 2]
Everybody's told you
I'm the kind who'll break your heart
(Kind who'll break your heart)
So our love is over now
Before it ever starts
I may be guilty of some things in the past
But now, I've found a love I want to last
This time I know I'm right, so here I'm gonna stay
(Here I'm gonna stay)
Until I make you see that love's the only way
Girl, what we're feeling now can never come again
So I'm not gonna let what we've got end

[Chorus]
You gotta take chances (you gotta take chances)
If you wanna find true love
Wow... (You gotta take chances) Honey, everybody does
You gotta take chances (you gotta take chances)
If you're gonna find the one you need
(You gotta take chances) Oh, in this I do believe

[Bridge]
So what's the verdict, girl? (What's the verdict?)
Have you made up your mind? (Have you made up your mind?)
Are you gonna love me? (Are you gonna love me?)
Are we wastin' time? (Are we wastin' time?)
Oh, baby...

[Chorus]
You gotta take chances (you gotta take chances)
If you wanna find true love
You gotta take chances (you gotta take chances)
'Cause everybody does
You gotta take chances (you gotta take chances)
If you wanna find the one you need
You gotta take chances (you gotta take chances)
In this I do believe

[Post-Chorus]
Oh... (You gotta take chances)
You gotta take a chance sometime
(If you wanna find true love)
Ah... (You gotta take chances)
Oh, in this I do believe
(Everybody does) Aw...

[Outro]
(You gotta take chances)
You're out there, looking for your rainbow
(If you wanna find true love)
But you're scared to take a chance
(You gotta take chances) You gotta take chances
(Everybody does) Oh, everybody does
(You gotta take chances)
Ah, chances, keep on goin' around
(If you wanna find true love)
(You gotta take chances)
Oh, if you wanna find the one you need
(Everybody does) Ah...
(You gotta take chances...)
