Kelly Clarkson – Long Shot Lyrics 16 years ago
(some minor corrections from the one before)

Ah, ah, ah---
Ah, ah, ah--
Ah, ah, ah-

I felt it-
The wire TOUCH my neck &-
Then someone pulled it tighter-
I never saw it comin'-
I started to black out &-
Then someone said "Good Mornin'!"-
I took it as a warnin'-
I should have seen it comin'-
So now I take a chance on-
This thing we may have started-
Intentional or not, I-
Don't think we saw it comin'-
It's all addin' up to somethin'-
That asks for some involvement-
BUT AS for a commitment??-
I think I see it comin'-
If we step out on that LIMB-

(Chorus)
My heart beat, beats me senselessly-
Why's everything gotta be so intense with me??-
I'm tryin' handle all this unpredictability-
IN all probability-

It's a long shot-
But I say why not??-
If I say forget it??-
I know that I'll regret it-
It's a long shot-
Just to beat these odds-
The chance is we won't make it-
But I know if I don't take it-
There's no chance-
'Cause you're the best I've got-
So take a long shot-

I realize that there is all this doubting-
SINCE we're both scared about that-
We'll never see 'EM comin'-
Throw caution to the wind THAT-
We'll see which way it's BLOWIN'-
& TO THIS FULLY KNOWIN'-
We'll never see it comin'-
'Til it's much too close to stop-

(Chorus)
My heart beat, beats me senselessly-
Why's everything gotta be so intense with me??-
I'm tryin' handle all this unpredictability-
IN all probability-

It's a long shot-
But I say why not??-
If I say forget it??-
I know that I'll regret it-
It's a long shot-
just to beat these odds-
The chance is we won't make it-
But I know if I dont take it-
There's no chance-
'Cause you're the best I've got-
So take a long shot-

Oh I waited-
For fact to 'come a fiction-
& you fit my description-
I never saw you comin'-
But we'll make it-

It's a long shot-
But I say why not??-
If I say forget it??-
I know that I'll regret it-
It's a long shot-
Just to beat these odds-
The chance is we won't make it-
But I know if I don't take it-
There's no chance-
No chance---
'Cause you're the best I've got-

It's a long shot-
But I say why not??-
If I say forget it??- (So take a long shot)...
I know that I'll regret it-
It's a long shot-
Just to beat these odds-
The chance is we won't make it-(You didn't expect this)...
But I know if I don't take it-

It's a long shot-
But i say why not??- (Oh you never saw me comin')...
If I say forget it??-
I know that I'll regret it- (You didn't expect this)...
It's a long shot-
Just to beat these odds-(Oh you never saw me comin')...
The chance is we won't make it-
But i know if i don't take it- (I'm the best you've got)...

(fading to nothing)
It's a long shot-
but i say why not-

(My meaning)

To me it's about a male and a female who are really good friends may have dated before or not but know what they feel for each other is deep and they know that their odds are slim because most relationships do not last wether it be a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship or a marriage. But it sounds like the girl wants the commitment and the guy's not sure but she thinks if she'll stick around it will grow into a commitment. She wants to take the chance because she really cares for the guy and no one else makes her feel the way he makes her feel. So it would be worth it at least for her :)
