Longshot

[innocenteyed]

Ah, ah, ah---
Ah, ah, ah--
Ah, ah, ah-

I felt it-
The wire touch my neck &-
Then someone pulled it tighter-
I never saw it comin'-
I started to black out &-
Then someone said "Good Mornin'!"-
I took it as a warnin'-
I should have seen it comin'-
So now I take a chance on-
This thing we may have started-
Intentional or not, I-
Don't think we saw it comin'-
It's all addin' up to somethin'-
That asks for some involvement-
But as for a commitment??-
I think I see it comin'-
If we step out on that limb-

My heart beat, beats me senselessly-
Why's everything gotta be so intense with me??-
I'm trying handle all this unpredictability-
In 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 these 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 a long shot-

I realize that there is all this doubting-
& we're both scared about that-
We'll never see them comin'-
Throw caution to the wind &-
We'll see which way it's blowin'-
& to fully knowin'-
We'll never see it comin'-
'Til it's much too close to stop-

My heart beat, beats me senselessly-
Why's everything gotta be so intense with me??-
I'm trying handle all this unpredictability-
It 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 these odds-
The chance is we won't make it-
But I know if I dont take it-
There's no chance-
'Cause you're the best I've got-
So take a long shot-

Oh I waited-
For fact to 'come a fiction-
& you fit my description-
I never saw you comin'-
But we'll make it-

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 these odds-
The chance is we won't make it-
But I know if I don't take it-
There's no chance-
No chance---
'Cause you're the best I've got-

It's a long shot-
But I say why not??-
If I say forget it??- (So take a long shot)...
I know that I'll regret it-
It's a long shot-
Just to beat these odds-
The chance is we won't make it-(You didn't expect this)...
But I know if I don't take it-

It's a long shot-
But i say why not??- (Oh you never saw me comin')...
If I say forget it??-
I know that I'll regret it- (You didn't expect this)...
It's a long shot-
Just to beat these odds-(Oh you never saw me comin')...
The chance is we won't make it-
But i know if i don't take it- (I'm the best you've got)...

It's a long shot-
but i say why not-
