Taking A Chance On Love 1940 Vs2

I thought love's game was over,
lady luck had gone away.
I laid my cards on the table,
unable to play.
Then I heard good fortune say:
"They're dealing you a new hand today!"

Oh,
here I go again,
I hear those trumpets blow again,
all aglow again,
taking a chance on love.
Here I slide again,
about to take that ride again,
starryeyed again,
taking a chance on love.
I thought the cards were a frameup,
I never would try,
but now I'm taking the game up,
and the Ace of Hearts is high.
Things are mending now,
I see a rainbow blending now,
we'll have our happy ending now,
taking a chance on love.

Here I come again,
I'm gonna make thing hum again,
acting dumb again,
taking a chance on love.
Here I stand again,
about to beat the band again,
feeling grand again,
taking a chance on love.
I never dreamed in my slumbers,
and bets were taboo,
but now I'm playing the numbers
on a little dream for two.
Wading in again,
I'm leading with my chin again,
I'm startin' out to win again,
taking a chance on love.

Here I slip again,
about to take that tip again,
got my grip again,
taking a chance on love.
Now I prove again,
that I can make life move again,
in the groove again,
taking a chance on love.
I walk around with a horseshoe,
in clover I lie,
and brother rabbit,
of course you,
better kiss your foot goodbye.
On the ball again,
I'm riding for a fall again,
I'm gonna give my all again,
taking a chance on love.
