Taking Chances. . .

There is a new song stuck in my head right now: "Taking Chances" by Celine Dion.

I will say that I'm not a huge Celine fan and I don't really think that this song sounds like the Celine that I have heard before. I will also say that this song makes me think. Certain lines catch my attention and won't let go.

"Taking Chances"
recorded by Celine Dion
Don't know much about your life,
Don't know much about your world,
But don't want to be alone tonight,
On this planet they call earth.

You don't know about my past,
And I don't have a future figured out,
And maybe this is going too fast,
And maybe it's not meant to last.

(chorus)
But what do you say to taking chances?
What do you say to jumping off the edge?
Never knowing if there's solid ground below
Or hand to hold,
Or hell to pay,
What do you say,
What do you say?

I just want to start again,
And maybe you could show me how to try,
And maybe you could take me in,
Somewhere underneath your skin?

(chorus)

And I had my heart beaten down,
But I always come back for more, yeah.
There’s nothing like love to pull you up,
When you’re laying down on the floor there.
So talk to me,
Talk to me,
Like lovers do.
Yeah walk with me,
Walk with me,
Like lovers do,
Like lovers do.

(chorus)

Don’t know much about your life,
And I don’t know much about your world.
Namaste.
