You...with the past at your back and the future unsure
|
Asked for the chance to try love once more
|
Well aware of the consequences should the dream fall through
|
You threw down your last defenses wanting to try something new
|
Wanting to try something new
|
You found me in a sea of confusion drifting with the tide
|
Living on love that had long since died
|
But everytime that I touch you, baby
|
I feel a little more alive
|
And I'm reminded how much you've made me
|
Believe in the love that survives
|
You know, we must believe in the love that survives
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Oh lessons learned are like bridges burned
|
You only need to cross them but once
|
Is the knowledge gained worth the price of the pain?
|
Are the spoils worth the cost of the hunt?
|
Are the spoils worth the cost of the hunt?
|
Borne on the first warm winds of feeling newly found
|
|
Fly but remember don't look down
|
Take as much as you think you ought to
|
Give just as much as you can
|
Don't forget what your failures have taught you
|
Or else you'll learn them all over again
|
Or else you'll have to learn them all over again
|
|
[Chorus]
