Baby, it's a hard place
When the sun don't set the clouds look heavy
It's rainin' on my face
Crazy, it's about time I said it
It's been so long but now I'm ready
To set the record straight
Now that we've grown as much as can be
Do we need to sacrifice a chance for paradise
I don't wanna say goodbye 'cause I don't wanna see you cry
How am I to stay alive in something it's all or nothing
I just wanna play for keeps the only way that I can breathe
How can I lie and be in the wrong thing it's all or nothing for me
Baby since the day you took my heart away
I've been so strung out not quite heaven a thousand times a day
Baby since the time you took this heart of mine
I've been standin' on this same old corner
Trying to keep the faith
I feel alone as if you left me
Now another empty glass of wine as I try to pass the time
I don't wanna say goodbye 'cause I don't wanna see you cry
How am I to stay alive in something it's all or nothing
I just wanna play for keeps the only way that I can breathe
How can I lie and be in the wrong thing it's all or nothing for me
Now it's more than time to leave the past behind
And owe myself to no one open up that door and feel alive
I don't wanna say goodbye 'cause I don't wanna see you cry
How am I to stay alive in something it's all or nothing
I just wanna play for keeps the only way that I can breathe
How can I lie and be in the wrong thing it's all or nothing for me
