You take a chance on an airplane
You take a chance when you cross the street
You take a chance when you love somebody
When you're standing near the heat

You take a chance when you're honest
You take a chance when you tell lies
You take a chance when you trust somebody
When you look him in the eyes

Take a chance on me
Take a chance on me
I'm exactly what you see, honey
Take a chance on me

You take a chance when you're indecisive
You take a chance when you're aloof
You take a chance when you judge somebody
When you've really got no proof

You take a chance when you refuse to hear
You take a chance when you're unkind
You take a chance when you refuse to grow up, baby
You end up left behind

Take a chance on me
Take a chance on me
I'm exactly what you see, honey
Take a chance on me

You take a chance when you're ruthless
You take a chance when you're cruel
You take a chance when you make a vow, babe
To be nobody's fool

You take a chance when you're distant
You take a chance when you live inside
You take a chance when someone loves you
And you leave him with no pride

Take a chance on me
Take a chance on me
I'm exactly what you see, honey
Take a chance on me

Oh, take a chance on me
Take a chance on me
I'm exactly what you see, babe
Take a chance on me
