Tempting Fate
Beth Crowley
You can have anyone you want
You know it's true
People will fall over themselves
To get to you
And there's not a soul who understands
Why you chose me
But they don't have to
I have been perfectly content
Watching from the wings
As you become the legend you
Aspire to be
I've warned you the power that you crave
Comes at a price
But you won't hear me
Why are you tempting fate?
I see the way you've changed
Into someone I don't recognize
A stranger I have to walk behind
Pride goes before the fall
You're going to lose it all
If you let the precious time we borrowed
Slip away
Because you're tempting fate
You are so vividly alive
I often think
The Sun must be jealous that
You burn more beautifully
Sometimes I wish I could keep your light
All to myself
But you'd resent me
Why are you tempting fate?
I see the way you've changed
Into someone I don't recognize
A stranger I have to walk behind
Pride goes before the fall
You're going to lose it all
If you let the precious time we borrowed
Slip away
Because you're tempting fate
If you don't live
To see your glory
But your name will be
In all the stories
Does that mean leaving me
Worth leaving your legacy?
Does that mean leaving me
Worth leaving your legacy?
Why are you tempting fate?
I see the way you've changed
Into someone I don't recognize
A stranger I have to walk behind
Pride goes before the fall
You're going to lose it all
If you let the precious time we borrowed
Slip away
Because you're tempting fate
