The Maddigans - Taking Chances, Placing Bets lyrics

Sneaking out my window Where does the time go? Its wearing me out Ive got my high hopes And fools gold Im ready to bounce You think you know whats best for me, You dont I cant make you see, I wont I dont mean to leave While youre breaking down Too late Im on my way out You know Ive got other plans Than to be everything that you need of me (This is how it has to be) Too late Ive got my mind set On better things to come I dont mean to leave That part of me But this is how it has to be I know were gonna be on our own I dare you to slow us down You better watch your back When you run your mouth Im taking chances And Im placing bets On the things I love And the ones we left back home It slipped my tongue But I think I meant it all It all Is it worth the tragedy? Is this really what we need? I never meant to leave While youre breaking down Im gone and Im not stopping til theyre singing our songs I hope that you understand
