Possibilities
Lee Ritenour Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It never tells
What you should do
It makes you get
It's up to you

When you start thinking of possibilities
There's no guarantee
What you guess what you see
Only your heart will tell you
To take the chance
‘Cause you can't deny
But love is inside of yourself

Like I can next try twice
I've heard it say
God roll the die
Let it come up me

When you start thinking of possibilities
There's no guarantee
What you guess what you see
Only your heart will tell you
To take the chance
‘Cause you can't deny
But love is inside of yourself

It's gonna take
Sometime for me
To raise your faith
from my my memory

When you start thinking of possibilities
There's no guarantee
What you guess what you see
Only your heart will tell you
To take the chance
‘Cause you can't deny
But love is inside of yourself

When you start thinking of possibilities
There's no guarantee
What you guess what you see
Only your heart will tell you
To take the chance
‘Cause you can't deny
But love is inside of yourself

When you start thinking of possibilities
There's no guarantee
What you guess what you see
Only your heart will tell you
To take the chance




‘Cause you can't deny
But love is inside of yourself
