Taking a Chance On Romance
My heads spinning
I can't breath
There is no way to relieve
This attack experience
It doesn't make any sense
My hearts pounding--shaky hands
Knees so weak, its hard to stand
My whole body has goosebumps
I can feel a throat lump
Fevers are starting to brew
My mind can't make a day through
Without pictures of your face
Seeing you most every place
There's no medicine or pills
My whole world is standing still
The day you introduced yourself
There was a change that I felt
In my life, body and soul
It was like you came and stole
The badness that was plaguing me
In my heartfelt history
Throwing it so far away
Showing me it is O.K.
To trust someone once again
It won't be like where I've been
Pushed and shoved---hurting inside
I needed to look deep inside
Swallowing my hurted pride
And give myself one more chance
At a romantic life dance
Underneath a starry sky
And I saw this in your eyes
The first time you said hello
On a stool so long ago
