Píseň: Ready To Take A Chance Again

Interpret:
Barry Manilow
Album:
From Manilow to México
You remind me I live in a shell
Safe from the past and doing' okay but not very well
No jolts, no surprises, no crisis arises
My life goes along as it should, it's all very nice but not very good


And I'm ready to take a chance again
Ready to put my love on the line with you
Been living with nothing to show for it
You get what you get when you go for it
And I'm ready to take a chance again with you


When she left me in all my despair, I just held on
My hopes were all gone, then I found you there


And I'm ready to take a chance again
Ready to put my love on the line with you
Been living with nothing to show for it
You get what you get when you go for it


And I'm ready to take a chance again
Ready to put my love on the line with you
Been living with nothing to show for it
You get what you get when you go for it
And I'm ready to take a chance again
Ready to take a chance again with you, with you
