Evening high
I ride in
my book of dreams
Surrounded by
a host of
memories
Don't you hear me call
Crying the name
of truth
To write my name
Down in my book
of fools
All the long
lonely days
When love
got in the way
Got to be strong
I'll take my chances
with you girl
I'll take my chances
I've waited for so long
Though I've been
blue and blue
I've been blue
Got to go
all the way
Put behind
yesterday
Got to take my chances
girl
Take my chances
with you
Evening high
I ride in my book
of dreams

With thoughts of you
Burning right out
of my seas
All the long
lonely days
When love
got in the way
Got to be strong
I'll take my chances
with you girl

I'll take my chances with you girl
I'll take my chances with you girl

I've waited for so long

Though I've been bluer than blue

Got to go
all the way
Put behind
yesterday
Got to take my chances girl

Take my chances with you






Was that the time
You were sent from above




I'd write your name
Sign in my pot of love
With hopes in you
And faith to see you through
Now I'd do anything
Rather be a true
Girl, I'm gonna try and try
Try and try
Run through the night
Like a stranger in the night
Been so alone
I've made my mistakes
Trying to get in
Even in my prayers
Such a long, lonely day
When love
Got in the way
Got to take my chances, girl
Take my chances with you
I'll take my chances, girl
Take my chances with you
Take my chances with you
