Leap o' faith, Leap o' faith
You've only got one life -- don't waste it --
Take the leap o' faith

My head was heavy and my blood ran slow
Inspiration at an all-time low
About ready to jump out of my window
with a leap o' faith
Looking for a place for my feet to fall
Looking for a hole so I could crawl
Then I hit a live wire so I stood up tall
with a leap o' faith

Leap o' faith, leap o' faith
Put your caution in its place
with a leap o' faith
Leap o' faith, leap o' faith
You've only got one life -- don't waste it
Take the leap o' faith

Some people start off on the wrong foot
Drag their souls and sleep in the soot
Turn your back, let your past be put
with a leap o' faith
You can play your cards with a crooked deck
or you can pay your rent with a rubber cheque
but you can find true fortune at your call and beck
with a leap o' faith

Leap o' faith, leap o' faith
Put your caution in its place
with a leap o' faith
Leap o' faith, leap o' faith
You've only got one life -- don't waste it
Take the leap o' faith

I don't intend to wait forever
but I will if it need be
I see a light at the end of the tunnel
Wait for me
Wait for me

I saw some sights that I was scared of
Stood all alone when push came to shove
I heard Bo Diddley sing "Who Do You Love"
with a leap o' faith
Remember when they said that the world was flat
'til somebody else said "I don't believe that"
so they sailed from Spain to Montserrat
with a leap o' faith

Leap o' faith, leap o' faith
Put your caution in its place
with a leap o' faith
Leap o' faith, leap o' faith
You've only got one life -- don't waste it
Take the leap o' faith
