Take A Chance

Coming out of seclusion because of the Covid pandemic and now facing world challenges in the environment and war in Europe is a daunting passage for us all. I'm optimistic in spite of all these challenges. I had a great time working with my daughter on this production. Hope you like it.

  1. I can feel your passion and your daughters animation work and illustration work is excellent. Props to Kate. Perhaps she will design your album cover artwork? And, from what I can hear there’s some very interesting and creative lyrics within so I’d like to suggest that if possible you post the lyrics please. Just be aware that currently for whatever reason pasted text from a text doc will not sadly format so you will have your lyrics in a long paragraph but regardless of this current technical element in the comment boxes I’d still appreciate site of the lyrics to truly get a feel for the song.

  2. Lyrics
    Take A Chance
    Words, Music Gerry Segal © 2021
    Verse 1
    Take A Chance, Take A Chance
    Wake up from a trance
    Step outside, be a guide to circumstance
    Reach out and don’t hide
    Take the side of friendship and love

    Verse 2
    Take the time take the time
    Till you realize
    Life is filled with surprise and some compromise
    We’ve been so far apart
    It’s time to restart the road to love

    Chorus
    Half the world crave apocalyptic myths and abusive power
    Half the world is pushing seismic shifts and laws to devour
    Where do you stand where do you go
    Half the country’s at you nail and tooth
    Look them up, look them down, look them straight in the eye
    And always tell the truth

    Verse 3
    Take the time take the time
    Till you realize
    Life is filled with surprise and some compromise
    We’ve been so far apart
    It’s time to restart the road to love

    Chorus
    Where do you stand where do you go
    Half the country’s at you nail and tooth
    Look them up, look them down, look them straight in the eye
    And always tell the truth

    Outgo
    Take A Chance, Take A Chance
    Wake up from a trance
    Step outside, be a guide to circumstance
    Reach out and don’t hide
    Take the side of friendship and love
