Lyrics

What if there was no light?
Nothing wrong, nothing right
What if there was no time?
And no reason or rhyme

What if you should decide
That you don't want me there by your side
That you don't want me there in your life

What if I got it wrong, and no poem or song
Could put right what I got wrong
Or make you feel I belong

'Nd what if you should decide
That you don't want me there by your side
That you don't want me there in your life

Oooh, let's try
Let's take a breath jump over the side
Oooh, let's try
How can you know it if you don't even try
Oooh, let's try

Every step that you take
Could be your biggest mistake
It could bend or it could break
But that's the risk that you take

What if you should decide
That you don't want me there in your life
That you don't want me there by your side

Oooh, let's try
Let's take a breath jump over the side
Oooh, let's try
How can you know it when you don't even try
Oooh, let's try

Ohhhhh

Oooh, let's try
Let's take a breath jump over the side
Oooh, let's try
You know that darkness always turns into light
Oooh, let's try
