Weigh the Risks
I never planned on saying goodbye
If I had it my way we'd both have wings to fly
I never planned on making you cry
But not letting go would be living a lie
Neither of us know, nor could we tell
If falling in love would turn out that well
But what could I do, I watched as you fell
Wishing for the simple saving grace of a bell
You said, "weigh the risks" and that's what I did
Risks are better not taken, smiles better off hid
It saves so much pain to keep a closed lid
And it can't be opened with a bribe, the highest bid
So I hope that your hurt doesn't last very long
I hope your heartbreak isn't lived in every song
I never planned on this being so wrong
But it would be a lie to just play along.
