risk

i'd rather stand on the edge of a cliff

hang my toes over a bit

and then jump when they dare me

even if it scares me

and i get hurt

i'd rather build my wings on the way down

do my best not to fall to the ground

and then laugh at my mistakes

cause they're only lessons i'll learn

i'd rather burn with desire

deep in my soul

and love like a fire that's

out of control

and laugh

and dance

and fall

and chance

and kiss

i'd rather live my whole life

with a sense of abandon

squeeze every drop out

no matter what happens

and not wonder what i missed

i'd rather

risk

oh i just can't resist the chance to

risk

well i guess i could just play it safe

and forget about love hope and faith

with my eye on the shoreline

keeping my boat tied

and stayin' home

but i'll never discover new land

by keeping my feet on the sand

no i'd rather set sail

and get carried away by the storm
