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
