Is it our own hearts that we doubt
Or is it love as a whole
When you've lost the one thing you thought was true
It feels as if you've lost your soul

But the soul is too strong
And a broken heart will only mend
You'll cry a thousand tears
But you're sure to learn in the end

We could all love a thousand times
And suffer a broken heart from each one
We could trust in a thousand hearts
And lose that love when each is done

But if we never risk...never try
Never love for the few moments we have a chance
Then we go through life
Without ever taking time to teach our hearts to dance

And yes, sometimes we dance and leave partners behind
Sometimes we love and lose a piece of our hearts
Yet with every loss we must suffer
We find that there is light hidden in the dark

So love not because it is safe
But love because we may not see another day

Love because you can
And hurt because you will
Heal because time allows us
And a heart never stands still
