I take my chances Song Lyrics
I take my chances by Mary Chapin Carpenter
Well I know it ain¡Â¯t been roses lately
Baby it¡Â¯s just been thorns
And no matter what we do
Nothing seems to change
Love has always been my shelter
For you it¡Â¯s been a storm
But for a while I thought
We¡Â¯d almost beat the rain
Now there¡Â¯s a hole here in my pocket
Where all my dreams have gone
Falling out like so many nickels and dimes
And last of all you
You¡Â¯d always been my good luck charm
I should¡Â¯ve known that luck
It was a waste of time
Cause it don¡Â¯t bring you love if you don¡Â¯t love
And it don¡Â¯t bring you time if you ain¡Â¯t got time
And it don¡Â¯t bring you strength baby if you ain¡Â¯t strong
And it don¡Â¯t bring you kindness if you ain¡Â¯t kind
Now there¡Â¯s a whole lot in life to be unsure of
But there¡Â¯s one thing I can safely say I know
That of all the things that finally desert us
Pride is always the last thing to go
But it don¡Â¯t bring you love if you don¡Â¯t love
And it don¡Â¯t bring you time if you ain¡Â¯t got time
And it don¡Â¯t bring you strength baby if you ain¡Â¯t strong
And it don¡Â¯t bring you kindness if you ain¡Â¯t kind
And now I wish you only roses without the thorns
And I hope your dreams are always within reach
And I wish you shelter baby from all your storms
They scared you but they never seemed to teach
That I can¡Â¯t bring you love if you don¡Â¯t love
And I can¡Â¯t bring you time if you ain¡Â¯t got time
And I can¡Â¯t bring you strength baby if you ain¡Â¯t strong
And I can¡Â¯t bring you kindness if you ain¡Â¯t kind
And I can¡Â¯t bring you kindness if you ain¡Â¯t kind
