The song Taking My Chances is performed by The Outfield in the album named Play Deep in the year 1990 .



I'm calling out but there's no one to hear me
I'm so afraid 'cos there's nobody near me
All that I've got are the memories of Tuesday
I can't remember anything she said

Then in a moment my head starts spinnin'
Around in a circle, no end or beginnin'
An' just when I think that the whole world's turnin'
I open my eyes an' discover that life is just burnin' down

But this man stands his ground
For when there's nothin' left I'll fight for every breath

Don't turn your back on me, baby
I'm takin' all my chances
Why can't you hear what I'm sayin'?
I'm takin' all my chances

When you're alone with nobody to turn to
You look in the mirror an' think that it's untrue
In your reflection are you sure that you see
The person that you've always wanted to be

But you never were because you feared yourself
An' in your deepest thoughts you looked for someone else

Don't turn your back on me, baby
I'm takin' all my chances
Why can't you hear what I'm sayin'?
I'm takin' all my chances

I'm calling out but there's no one to hear me
I'm so afraid 'cos there's nobody near me
All that I've got are the memories of Tuesday
I can't remember anythin' she said

Don't turn your back on me, baby
I'm takin' all my chances
Why can't you hear what I'm sayin'?
I'm takin' all my chances

Don't turn your back on me, baby
I'm takin' all my chances
Why can't you hear what I'm sayin'?
I'm takin' all my chances

Don't turn your back on me, baby
I'm takin' all my chances
I'm takin' all my chances
