What Can You Lose Lyrics
[88 KEYS]
What can you lose?
Only the blues
Why keep concealing
Everything you're feeling?
Say it to her—
What can you lose?
Maybe it shows—
She's had clues
Which she chose to ignore
Maybe though she knows
And just wants to go on as before—
As a friend, nothing more
So she closes the door
[BREATHLESS]
Well, if she does
Those are the dues
[BREATHLESS & 88 KEYS]
Once the words are spoken
Something may be broken—
Still, you love her
What can you lose?
[88 KEYS]
But what if she goes?
At least now, you have part of her—
[BREATHLESS & 88 KEYS]
What if she had to choose?
[BREATHLESS]
Leave it alone
[88 KEYS]
Hold it all in
[BREATHLESS & 88 KEYS]
Better a bone
Don't even begin
With so much to win
There's too much to lose
