I heard the weatherman predict a sunny day He did not mean to lie, I look outside it's raining Anyway, I guess I can live with a rainy day 'Cause in the scheme of things you're gonna lose a few Even your best made plans before you know it They are falling through but that couldn't happen to me and you This time I'm in it for love, this time I'm in it to win It's crazy to do it again, but how could I possibly lose? How could I lose? This time I'm in it for you My ma, she used to say, "Beware the tender trap If you get caught in one make sure you notice where your heart is at Don't take chances with things, things like that" This time I'm in it for love, this time I'm in it to win It's crazy to do it again, but how could I possibly lose? How could I lose, this time I'm in it for you This time I'm in it for love, maybe this time I'm in it to win It's crazy to do it again but how could I possibly lose? How could I lose this time I'm in it for you This time I'm in it for love, this time I'm in it to win It's crazy to do it again, but how could I possibly lose? How could I lose, this time I'm in it for you
