We Could Be Together

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 shoesI'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 whileI 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 freeI'll give up my security
For just the possibility
That we could be together
For a whileIf 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 byAnd if you ask once I'll tell you twice
I'll ignore the world's advice
If we could be together
For a whileI 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 outHappiness means greater things
I'll sit here till that telephone rings
Then we could be together
For a whileIf 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 byAnd if you ask once I'll tell you twice
I'll ignore the world's advice
If we could be together
For a whileWait'll I tell my guy
(Wait'll I tell)
Wait'll I tell my other friends
They'll all think I'm crazyAnd 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 trueBut 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 byAnd if you ask once, I'll tell you twice
I'll ignore the world's advice
If we could be together
For a whileThere are no guarantees
But if it means
There's even a possibility
Then I'll give up whatever it takesI know I've made some mistakes before
It may be just another closed door
But we could be together
For a whileIf 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 byAsk me once I'll tell you twice
You know I'll ignore the world's advice
If we could be together
For a whileIf 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 byAsk me once I'll tell you twice
You know I'll ignore the world's advice
If we could be together
For a whileDon't you know that we could be together
For a while
