Taking Chances, Placing Bets Lyrics - Singles - The Maddigans

Sneaking out my window 

Where does the time go? 

Its wearing me out 

Ive got my high hopes 

And fools gold 

Im ready to bounce 

You think you know whats best for me, You dont 

I cant make you see, I wont 

I dont mean to leave 

While youre breaking down 

Too late Im on my way out 

You know Ive got other plans 

Than to be everything that you need of me 

(This is how it has to be) 

Too late Ive got my mind set 

On better things to come 

I dont mean to leave 

That part of me 

But this is how it has to be 

I know were gonna be on our own 

I dare you to slow us down 

You better watch your back 

When you run your mouth 

Im taking chances 

And Im placing bets 

On the things I love 

And the ones we left back home 

It slipped my tongue 

But I think I meant it all 

It all 

Is it worth the tragedy? 

Is this really what we need? 

I never meant to leave 

While youre breaking down 

Im gone and Im not stopping 

til theyre singing our songs 

I hope that you understand
