Delbert McClinton - Leap of Faith Lyrics

After my baby quit me
I wouldn't even go outside
And when my friends tried to fix me up
I'd crawl up underneath the bed and hide

I knew I was never gonna change my luck
Till I got my courage up enough to try
And when I went ahead and spread my wings
I found out I could fly

Sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith, oh yes it is baby
Baby sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith

I had no way of knowin'
What would come from our first kiss
It scares me now just to think about
The good love I might have missed

Now I was just tryin' to find some help
I was tryin' to see myself as a survivor
I had to rise on up on the ashes of love
And jump back into the fire

Sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith, I know you know it baby
Baby sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith

Sometimes you've got to believe
Before you see the proof
You can wait a lifetime for a moment of truth
Sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith

Sometimes you've got to believe before you see the proof
You can wait a lifetime for a moment of truth

Sometimes all it takes, baby sometimes all it takes
Sometimes all it takes is a leap of faith, oh yeah
