In this world today

Love is scarce and far away

And your heart gets so afraid

To trust someone

All the times he let you down

There was no love to be found

Well it's not the end

There'll be time to mend

And you'll love again



Never, never let a broken heart

Take a chance for love away

Don't ever let it make you fall apart

Never, never ever let the pain

Take your need for love away

Never, no never



And i know it seems hard

Open up, let down your guards

But you owe it to your heart

To try again

Oh, comes the time

When we must change

With the past

Don't take the blame

Don't be ashamed

Throw your fears away



Hook



I know, don't be afraid

For you will never find

Another one you love again

I know that you'll be sorry girl

Be strong before it's too late

Because forever is too long

For you to live in pain

Just don't give up

Please open up to love



Hook
