"The Chance You Take" lyrics

Sometimes it takes a lot of losing to win
And sometimes everything is over before it begins, ah yeah
When you only give it half of your heart
You end up with nothing at all
I took me a while until I learned
That even if you fall

You gotta dance, like there's nobody looking
Love, like your heart never breaks
Work, like you don't need the money
Life, life is the chance you take

Seems like we don't know pleasure till there's pain
And you don't appreciate the sun till it rains, ah yeah
The more you give, the more you get
You can't win unless you play
And even when you're scared of playing the fool
Somehow you take it all the way

You gotta dance, like there's nobody looking
Love, like your heart never breaks
Work, like you don't need the money
Life, life is the chance you take

We only get one chance to make it
So when the moment comes your way
You take it, oh

The more you give, the more you get
You can't win unless you play
And even when you're scared of playing the fool
Somehow you take it all the way

You gotta dance, like there's nobody looking
Love, like your heart never breaks
Work, like you don't need the money
Life, life is the chance you take

Life, life is the chance you take
Life, life is the chance you take
