Play It Safe

Don't wish lightly on a star
No matter how lucky you think you are
Because dreams they do come true
Even the bad ones do
Don't wish Lightly on a star

Don't think about him too much
There's a reason why they call it a crush
You know thoughts are like balloons
You can cut 'em loose
Don't you think of him too much

You know what they say about playing it safe
If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space

My mama told me if you blink
You could miss the whole damn thing
'Cause no one sees the dream
Once it turns reality
You could miss it if you blink

If only I could come undone
Then I could give you all my love
But I can look you in the eye
Say I'm not afraid to try
Come see me if you want

You know what they say about playing it safe
If you're not living on the edge you're taking up too much space

The best people were mistakes
Conceived in the back of a Chevrolet
So you pour some love on your pain
You don't get to choose sunshine over rain
Tell me now, where would I be if I played it safe?
