When We Risk It All...
We can't blame others when love dwindles away-
For we knew from the start it never promised to stay.
It's just one of those things where the stakes are high-
And sometimes it's forever, and sometimes it's good-bye.
When you love the right way, you will never lose-
No matter what path life may force you to choose.
You may end up with tears or a broken heart-
But you knew what you signed up for from the start.
You can only give what you've got to give-
And if that's not enough, then you must continue to live.
Life will go on and broken hearts will heal-
You must continue on your quest, for that's the deal.
Throw your heart into life and never stall-
For the greatest risk is to risk nothing at all.
You see, love is the only thing that we know-
That can be divided and divided but continue to grow.
And life isn't long enough to lock away our heart-
Just because life may have forced two people apart.
We will continue to love and continue to lose-
We will continue to pick and continue to choose.
And then one day we will risk it all-
Take the chains off our hearts and dismantle the wall.
The last time we love will be the forever-
And never again will our hearts be forced to sever.
We'll never have doubts that it'll go away-
Because this time, it'll be here to stay.
But until then we must endure all the pain-
For we only see sunshine if we can wait through the rain.
