[VERSE 1:]
|
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
|
|
[VERSE 2:]
|
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
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
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
|
|
[VERSE 3:]
|
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 'til that telephone rings
|
then we could be together
|
for a while
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
[BRIDGE:]
|
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
|
|
[BRIDGE:]
|
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
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
Don't you know that we could be together
|
for a while.
