The Wild Reeds – Play It Safe lyrics
[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
You know what they say about playin' it safe
If you're not livin' on the edge, you're taking up too much space

[Verse 2]
My mama told me if you blink
You can miss the whole damn thing
Because no one sees a dream once it turns reality
You miss it if you blink
If only I could come undone
Then I could give you all my love
But I can't look you in the eye, say I'm not afraid to try
Come see me if you want

[Chorus]
You know what they say about playin' it safe
If you're not livin' 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?
