What Can You Lose?

[Verse 1]
What can you lose?
Only the blues
Why keep concealing
Everything you're feeling?
Say it to him—
What can you lose?
Maybe it shows—
He’s had clues
Which he chose to ignore
Maybe though he knows
And just wants to go on as before—
As a friend, nothing more
So he closes the door

[Verse 2]
Well, if he does
Those are the dues
Once the words are spoken
Something may be broken—
Still, you love him
What can you lose?
But what if he goes?
At least now, you have part of him—
What if he had to choose?
Leave it alone
Hold it all in
Better a bone
Don't even begin
With so much to win
There's too much to lose
