She took my heart by storm one night,
  seems long ago
She freed the captive soul in me
  I didn't even know
Makin' love on that mountaintop
  we left the world below
She whispered I was all she'd ever need
  and that she'd never go…

Times were tough but we held on tight
  neither would let go
We gave each other everything
  we'd never found before
She gave me all she had never given
  and then she gave me more
Sunny days - moonlit nights
  she was the love of my life

And she told me,
Life is nothing but the choices that we make
If you want to live, you've got to choose
And she taught me,
Life is nothing but the chances that you take
Take a chance on me, boy, you can't lose

She held me close - she held me tight
  my face was in her hair
When she looked into my eyes
  'was more than I could bear
She said 'baby, it's time to go…
  it doesn't matter where'
Ride this rollercoaster life with me
  be my lover beyond compare

And she told me,
Life is nothing but the choices that we make
If you want to live, you've got to choose
And she taught me,
Life is nothing but the chances that you take
Take a chance on me, boy, you can't lose

She took my heart by storm one night

  and that she'd never go…

And she told me,
Life is nothing but the choices that we make
If you want to live, you've got to choose
And she taught me,
Life is nothing but the chances that you take
Take a chance on me, boy, you can't lose

And she told me,
