Lyrics
Jumping In Heart First
(c) 1999, Serina Jung
I know there are some risks involved
can't predict the final outcome
and a waste of time to over-analyze
'cause it won't ensure a future
he's professed his feelings
clear as glass and at first I held back
but despite the odds of love's success
all I want is to be with him
I'm jumping in heart first
for better or the cursed worst
giving all without reserve
I'm plunging in
I'm leaping, diving, no holds barred
no matter what our chances are
no time to test the waters
'cause I'm jumping in
I know it could come to a shattering end
or maybe get stale and boring
stats are so discouraging
I'd prefer to ignore them
he's funny, sexy, just my type
he wants me, no other
instinct tells me to go ahead
throw prudence to the wind
I'm jumping in heart first
for better or the cursed worst
giving all without reserve
I'm plunging in
I'm leaping, diving, no holds barred
no matter what our chances are
no time to test the waters
'cause I'm jumping in
a friend expressed deep concern
a long courtship's her suggestion
outrageous flirting, double entendres
stoke his fire with mystery
but why waste time on playing games
with a man who's this magnetic?
It might be a gamble, a hit or miss
either way, I'm jumping in
I'm jumping in heart first
for better or the cursed worst
giving all without reserve
I'm plunging in
I'm leaping, diving, no holds barred
no matter what our chances are
no time to test the waters
'cause I'm jumping in
I'm jumping in heart first
cross my fingers, hope it works
I'm charging forward with wild abandon
I'm jumping in, jumping in, jumping in heart first
