"The Risk" lyrics

"The Risk"

Like a rattler in the sun
A risky run
Lyin' there like a loaded gun
The risky run, the risky run
Like a switchblade, long and sharp
It's the risk, the risky run
Love can cut right through your heart
It's the risky run, the risky run

Run the risk or you'll never know
For sure if it's her
She's the one with the risky run
The risky run

Are you ready? Are you not
For the risky run, the risky run?
All it takes is all you've got
For the risky run, the risky run
Remember when you bet your life
It's the risk, the risky run (The risky run, the risky run)
Love is what makes life worthwhile
It's the risky run, the risky run

Run the risk or you'll never know
For sure if it's her
She's the one with the risky run
The risky run

(The risky run, the risky run)
The risky run
(The risky run, the risky run)
The risky run
(The risky run, the risky run)
The risky run
(The risky run, the risky run)
The risky run
(The risky run, the risky run)
(The risky run, the risky run)
(The risky run, the risky run)
(The risky run, the risky run)
(The risky run, the risky run)
(The risky run, the risky run)
(The risky run, the risky run)
(The risky run, the risky run)
(The risky run, the risky run)
(The risky run, the risky run)
