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 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 'til 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 If you 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
