If I were an only child |
|
I would be a lonely child |
|
But, baby, we've got nothing to lose |
|
I'm standing tall in my own shoes |
|
I'll take this chance, I'll make this choice |
|
I'll right this wrong, I'll raise my voice |
|
If it means we'll be together |
|
For a while |
|
I have never had a doubt |
|
But for you I'll take time out |
|
I'll push his love far away from me |
|
And then I'll be completely free |
|
I'll give up my security |
|
For just the possibility |
|
That we could be together |
|
For a while |
|
If you said "Jump", I'd say "How high?" |
|
If you said "Run" I'd run and fly |
|
Just for the chance, just for the moment |
|
Should the moment pass us by |
|
And if you ask once I'll tell you twice |
|
I'll ignore the world's advice |
|
If we could be together |
|
For a while |
|
I am taken by your strength |
|
I've thought about it at great length |
|
I thought that I was happy now |
|
But there are things that I found out |
|
Happiness means greater things |
|
I'll sit here till that telephone rings |
|
Then we could be together |
|
For a while |
|
If you said "Jump", I'd say "How high?" |
|
If you said "Run" I'd run and fly |
|
Just for the chance, just for the moment |
|
Should the moment pass us by |
|
And if you ask once I'll tell you twice |
|
I'll ignore the world's advice |
|
If we could be together |
|
For a while |
|
Wait'll I tell my guy |
|
(Wait'll I tell) |
|
Wait'll I tell my other friends |
|
They'll all think I'm crazy |
|
And ya know what? That depends |
|
'Cause I'm crazy in love with you |
|
And everyone's best won't do |
|
They'll say my hopes will not come true |
|
But I'm taking the chance |
|
Because you only live once |
|
Only live once |
|
(Only live once) |
|
And, if you said, "Jump", I'd say, "How high?" |
|
If you said, "Run", you know I'd fly |
|
Just for the chance, just for the moment |
|
Should the moment pass us by |
|
And if you ask once, I'll tell you twice |
|
I'll ignore the world's advice |
|
If we could be together |
|
For a while |
|
There are no guarantees |
|
But if it means |
|
There's even a possibility |
|
Then I'll give up whatever it takes |
|
I know I've made some mistakes before |
|
It may be just another closed door |
|
But we could be together |
|
For a while |
|
If you said, "Jump", I'd say, "How high?" |
|
If you said, "Run", I'd run and fly |
|
Just for the chance, just for the moment |
|
Should the moment pass us by |
|
Ask me once I'll tell you twice |
|
You know I'll ignore the world's advice |
|
If we could be together |
|
For a while |
|
If you said, "Jump", I'd say, "How high?" |
|
If you said, "Run", I'd run and fly |
|
Just for the chance, just for the moment |
|
Should the moment pass us by |
|
Ask me once I'll tell you twice |
|
You know I'll ignore the world's advice |
|
If we could be together |
|
For a while |
|
Don't you know that we could be together |
|
For a while |
