He hurt
you.
She hurt me.
Now trust
doesn't come
so easily.
Love isn't
the fairy
tale it was
before.
So we're careful,
cause we're
fragile.
We both realize
some caution
is wise.
But we won't
really love,
Til we're
not scared
to hurt anymore.
So I open
myself to
the thought,
And the hope
and the real,
And the fact
it could end.
But I'm taking
the chance,
Cause I know
if we don't,
Then we might
never find
this again.
And I know
that we can't
be alone,
What we might
be together.
So I'll give
you my best,
For what's
left of the
rest of forever.
You need me
and I need
you.
Sharing again
isn't easy
to do.
We've only
been able,
To count on
ourselves
for so long.
And now taken,
takes courage,
And though
I'm afraid
it's making
me brave.
Seeing you
struggle to
stay weak
enough to
be strong.
So I open
myself to
the thought,
And the hope
and the real,
And the fact
it could end.
But I'm taking
the chance,
Cause I know
if we don't,
Then we might
never find
this again.
And I know
that we can't
be alone,
What we might
be together.
So I'll give
you my best,
For what's
left of the
rest of forever,
I'm yours,
forever I'm
sure.
As forever
I've been,
I said never
again.
But I open
myself to
the thought,
And the hope
and the real,
And the fact
it could end.
But I'm taking
this chance,
Cause I know
if we don't,
Then we might
never find
this again.
And I know
that we can't
be alone,
What we might
be together.
So I'll give
you my best,
For what's
left of the
rest,
I'll give
you my best
for
What's left
of the rest
of forever.
