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.

Oh, 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 him).
Wait'll I tell my other friends.
They'll all think I'm crazy,
And you 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 yeah.
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,   (Possibility),
Then I'll give up whatever it takes,   (Whatever it takes).
I know I've made 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 yeah.
Ask 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.
And if you ask once I'll tell you twice,
I'll ignore the world's the world's advice,
If we could be together - for a while.

Don't you know that,
We could be together - for a while.
