Simone - Taking A Chance On Love (2007) by Simone (보컬) on maniadb.com

Do me wrong; do me right.
Tell me lies, but hold me tight.
Save your goodbyes for the morning light,
But don't let me be lonely tonight.

Say goodbye and say hello.
Sure been good to see you, but it's time to go.
Don't say, "Yes," but please don't say, "No."
I don't want to be lonely tonight.

Go away, then, damn you,
Go on and do as you please.
You ain't gonna see me gettin' down on my knees.
I'm undecided, and your heart's been divided,
You've been turning my world upside down.

Do me wrong; do me right.
Go on and tell me lies, but hold me tight.
Save your goodbyes for the morning light,
But don't let me be lonely tonight.

t's very clear
Our love is here to stay,
Not for a year,
But ever and a day.
The radio and the telephone
- the movies that we know -
May just be passing fancies,
And in time may go.

But, oh my dear,
Our love is here to stay.
Together we're going a long, long way.
In time the Rockies may crumble,
Gibraltar may tumble -
They're only made of clay -
But our love is here to stay.

[Repeat last two stanzas]

I don't need your photograph to keep by my bed;
Your picture is always in my head.
I don't need your portrait, dear,
to call you to mind;
For, sleeping or waking, dear, I find

The very thought of you and I forget to do
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do.
I'm living in a kind of daydream;
I'm happy as a queen.
And foolish although it may seem
To me that's everything.

The mere idea of you, the longing here for you,
You'll never know how slow the moments go
'till I'm near to you.
I see your face in every flower;
Your eyes in stars above.
It's just the thought of you,
The very thought of you, my love.

[Repeat last two stanzas]

You and I, we two alone here
On this terrace by the sea.
The sun is going down
And in your eyes

I see the changing colors of the sea.
It's time for you to go; the day is done
And shadows stretch their arms to bring the night.
The sun falls on the sea
And down below a window light I can see
Just you and me.

You and I, we two alone here
In this bar with dimming lights.
A full and rising moon comes from the sea,
And soon the bar will close for you and me.
But there will always be a song to tell-
A story you and I cannot dismiss,
The same old simple stroy of desire
And suddenly that kiss.

Little boy, you're the one boy for me.
Little boy, you're as sweet as can be.
Just a glance at you meat love from the start.
Oh, what a thrill came into my heart!

Little boy, with your cute little ways,
I am yours for the rest of my days.
And this great big world will be divine,
Little boy, when you're mine, all mine

[Repeat last two stanzas]

Why do birds suddenly appear
Ev'ry time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

Why do stars fall down from the sky
Ev'ry time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

On the day that you were born,
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream-come-true.
So they sprinkled moondust in your hair a gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.

That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

[Repeat last two stanzas]

Here I go again.
I hear those trumpets blow again,
All aglow again,
Taking a chance on love.

Here I slide again,
About to take that ride again,
Starry eyed again,
Taking a chance on love.

I thought that cards were a frame-up
I never would try.
Now I'm taking that game up
And the ace of hearts is high.

Things are mending now;
I see a rainbow blending now.
We'll have a happy ending now,
Taking a chance on love.

[Repeat whole lyric]

Goodbye, no use leading with our chins,
This is where our story ends-
Never lovers, ever friends.

Goodbye, let our hearts call it a day.
But before you walk away,
I sincerely want to say...

I wish you bluebirds in the spring
To give your heart a song to sing,
And then a kiss, but more than this,
I wish you love.

And in July, a lemonade
To cool you in some leafy glade.
I wish you health,
I wish you love.

My breaking heart and I agree
That you and I could never be.
So, with my best-my very best-
I set you free.

I wish you shelter from the storm,
A cozy fire to keep you warm.
But most of all, when snowflakes fall,
I wish you love.

No more blues,
I'm going back home.
No, no more blues,
I promise no more to roam.
Home is where the heart is;
The funnny part ids my heart's been right there all along.

No more tear,
And no more sighs,
No more fears,
I'll say no more good-byes.
If travel beckons me I swear I'm going to refuse
I'm going to settle down
And there'll be no more blues.

Everyday when I am far away
My thoughts turn homeward, forever homeward.
I've travelled 'round the world in search of happiness;
But all the happiness I found was in my hometown.

No more blues,
I'm going back home.
No more blues,
I'm through with all my wanderings.

Now I'll settle down and live me life,
Will build a home and find a guy.
When we settle down,
There'll be no more blues,
Nothing but happiness-
When we settle down,
There'll be no more blues.

[Repeat last two stanzas]

If I expected love when first we kissed,
Blame it on my youth.
If only just for you, I did exist,
Blame it on my youth.

I believed in everything
Like a child of three.
You meant more than anything-
All the world to me.

If you were on my mind all night and day,
Blame it on my youth.
If I forgot to eat and sleep and pray,
Blame it on my youth.

If I cried a little bit when I first learned the truth,
Don't blame it on my heart,
Blame it on my youth.
