barry manilow - ready to take a chance again lyrics

you remind me i live in a shell,
safe from the past,
and doing' okay,
but not very well.
no jolts, no surprises,
no crisis arises:
my life goes along as it should,
it's all very nice,
but not very good.
and i'm ready to take a chance again,
ready to put my love on the line with you.
been living with nothing to show for it;
you get what you get when you go for it,
and i'm ready to take chance again with you.
when she left me in all my despair,
i just held on,
my hopes were all gone.
then i found you there.
and i'm ready to take a chance again
ready to take a chance again with you,
with you.
