I'd rather stand on the edge of a cliff
And hang my toes over a bit
And then jump when they dare me
Even if it scares me and I get hurt
I'd rather build my wings on the way down
Do my best not to fall to the ground
And than laugh at my mistakes
'cause there only lessons I'll learn
[Chorus]
I'd rather burn with desire deep in my soul
And love like a fire that's out of control, and laugh and dance and fall
And chance and kiss
I'd rather live my whole life
With a sense of abandon
Squeeze every drop out
No matter what happens
And not wonder what I've missed
I'd rather risk
Well I guess I could just play it safe
And forget about love, hope and faith
With my eye on the shore line
Keeping my boat tied and staying home
Ohhh but I'll never discover new land
By keeping my feet on the sand
No I'd rather set sail
And get carried away by the storm
[Chorus]
I'd rather burn with desire deep in my soul
And love like a fire that's out of control, and laugh and dance and fall
And chance and kiss
I'd rather live my whole life
With a sense of abandon
Squeeze every drop out
No matter what happens
And not wonder what I've missed
I'd rather risk
I would rather risk
I'd rather burn with desire deep in my soul
And love like a fire that's out of control
I'd live my whole life
With a sense of abandon
Squeeze every drop out
No matter what happens
And not wonder what I've missed
Oh I just can't resist
The chance to risk
Ohhh live, and love and laugh and dance and fall and chance and kiss
