A couple of things
This is as honest as I could be
My sole objective is to love listen and respect her
From this very second I'm just saying that
You special enough for me to want to protect you, against you
And don't love me shorty

I'm sure you did a lot of things
Before I got in the picture
Didn't you wait, don't tell me
I know you kissed a lot of girls
Told a lot of lies
Broke a few heats but listen
I ain't feel none of that last night when you held me
I just wanna believe that you
Met a girl who felt something different 
(different from all the other ones)
I believe that girl met you
And saw someone who had some beautiful intentions

So let's just take a chance
Take a hand, take a leap
And do what most won't underštand
(Let's just take a chance)
Who knows where we'll end
I'll be down if you tell me you can't
I'll learn to change my plans
I'm willing to change my plans
I'm willing to take that chance
(Just take a chance)

Uh, settle down queen
I've been begging you forever just for now queen
When the time's right
Get your mind right
We will tell our whole town this is our thing
But for now queen
This is how it'll be
I could fully understand if you gotta leave
When the time's right
Get my mind right
I'ma get these dummy form around me
Got a past I'm ashamed of
Past full of danger
I can give you everything but a last name is sacred
All I ask is a chance that you take
And be safe with yourself and never lack any patience
I'm a young wild bull who been through a lot
Use them get summer hot
I could stop, I take them down
But I take you out
It's funny how you get the ring and they only give 'em the box

So let's just take a chance
Take a hand, take a leap
And do what most won't understand
(Let's just take a chance)
Who knows where we'll end
I'll be down if you tell me you can't
I'm willing to change my plans

I'ma pay attention to the obvious
So there's no need for you to mention
Your past I'm ready

So let's just take a chance
Take a hand, take a leap
And do what mošt won't understand
(Let's just take a chance)
Who knows where we'll end
I'll be down if you tell me you can't
I'm willing to change my plans
I'm willing to take that chance
Let's take a chance
