Risk It All

[Deleted Member]

This piece was adapted into song lyrics by a local band, a chorus was added, and they say it became one of their favorites.

 

You are everything I know I shouldn't have

I know there is a chance it will shatter and break

Always as *** as a candle in the wind

Yet I have to try, if only for my souls sake

 

Call me foolish, call me reckless, doubt me again

But here I am, all I have, and I will wait for you

Your smile is carved upon this weary heart

To hear you whisper my name will make it come true

 

I have scorned so many temptations

Taken what was needed, then walked away

Cast feelings aside, cruel in my intent

All in the hope there will be that day

 

I have to risk it all, there is no longer choice

I am damned already, it won't matter if I fail

For that moment, one touch, upon your cheek

Hear me girl, listen close, I will prevail.
