Lyrics Longshot - Stacy Lattisaw

Here we are again standing on the wire
Between what we've got and what we desire
Do we take this chance or just back away
And miss so much by playing it safe

I'm so tired of watching others win
No more "almost war"
No more "could have been"
I'm cashing in all these Sunday dreams
I'm gonna risk it all
I'm bettin' everything

It's a longshot
But I know we've gotta take it
We've been down from the start
This time we're breakin' through
It's a longshot
But the odds are in our favour
There's just no stopping me and you

There's a voice inside
That I can't ignore
Saying just this once
Reach for something more
Cause while others think
We don't have a prayer
We're coming from behind
We're gonna hear 'em there

It's a longshot
But I know we've gotta take it
We've been down from the start
This time we're breakin' through
It's a longshot
But the odds are in our favour
There's just no stopping me and you

It's gonna take a lot of faith
But everybody has their day
As long as we always stay together
We're gonna win somehow

It's a longshot
But I know we've gotta take it
We've been down from the start
This time we're breakin' through
It's a longshot
But the odds are in our favour
There's just no stopping me and you.
