Is love worth the risk?


Ive been down this road, plenty times before.

And now im staring down it once more.

Can she really be worth the risk? Is being in love really worth the trip?

A broken heart is not easy to mend, especially when you hope to be with one person until the end

They say your happiest when your in love, they say both souls live above

something beautiful and special like the sight of two white doves.

It's a heart warming feeling, knowing that someone feels exactly the same way

They go on and on about how they're in eachothers mind all day.

What else is they're to say, love is special, it is unique.

When both lovers are on the same page, no situation is bleak.

However, ive been down this road 

And im staring down it once more.

Hesistant i am now, because it may be no different then before.

Losing someone you thought would never be lost

can make a heart cold, you'd think it were made of frost.

The first moment when you realize, that they are gone

makes you believe you were meant to be alone all along.

Its a painful feeling, we must endure 

now your heart may never be heard.

So i ask again, is love worth the risk?

Because down this road

Happiness and pain will continue any trip.
