The Risk

You've emptied your pockets Cried yourself dry Opened up your heart To watch it die on the vine Thoughts turn to darkness An unpleasant mind The life you always wanted Was a flash in the pan That's what you get For all your dreamin' That's what you get But I think you'll find That's just the risk we take The risk we take for love C'mon, don't be sad The worst part of it's through Give it time to heal And try again It's not the end It's the beginning of something new You'll make a mess again Forgive me, it's true. That's what you get For all your heartache That's what you get But I think you'll find That's just the risk we take The risk we take for love C'mon now You've been down this road You know in your heart You'll do it again So c'mon, c'mon, c'mon Let's do it again Yeah yeah yeah yeah And that's what you get For all your schemin' That's what you get But I think you'll find That's just the risk we take The risk we take for love That's just the risk we take for love That's just the risk we take for love That's just the risk we take for love
