Take A Chance On Me - 
Song by Heather Richards 1999

Every night when I wish on a star 
I’m wishing you would take a chance on me
And I’m hoping with a stroke of luck 
That maybe one day you will see
My intentions aren’t to break your heart 
So would you just let down your guard
How will you ever know what will be 
If you won’t even let it start

So come on baby just hold me closer
Just open up to the way you feel 
Won’t you take a chance and give me your heart now
Come On Baby take a chance on me

When I wake and I face the day
I’m wishing you were lying next to me
And I wish you would let love happen 
Then you’ll soon face destiny
Don’t be afraid to take the chance 
I know your hearts been broke before
But I can see you care in your eyes
It’s not something you should ignore

So come on baby just hold me closer
Just open up to the way you feel 
Won’t you take a chance and give me your heart now
Come On Baby take a chance on me

My intentions aren’t to break your heart 
so would you just let down your guard
How will you ever know what will be 
If you won’t even let it start

So come on baby just hold me closer
Just open up to the way you feel 
Won’t you take a chance and give me your heart now
Come On Baby take a chance on me
