Can't abuse a love affair
Take for granted what you think is there
Let the silence fill the lonely air around us
The truth falls like pieces of dreams
Invisible walls that I can't see
How does it happen, why can't we just be?
What is it makes us act so crazy
Riskin' it all over passion and pain
Stripped to the soul, we hold on for safety
We give it all, we know how, so don't cry now
The risk is all in the take
We see it all when it's too late
And we dance so fast to keep the flame inside
What is it makes us act so crazy
Riskin' it all over passion and pain
Stripped to the soul, we hold on for safety
We give it all, we know how
We give it all, we know how, so don't cry
Do you remember, when nothing else mattered
But the fire in your eyes
How do we find ourselves caught in this battle
Of what to do with our lives
What is it makes us act so crazy
Riskin' it all over passion and pain
Stripped to the soul, we hold on for safety
We give it all, we know how
We give it all, we know how
We give it all, we know how, so don't cry now
