NOTHING TO LOSE
Forever Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I should be brave with nothing to lose,
That's how I was until the day I met you,
Now I'm afraid that I don't know what to do,
A couple of things I've really got to tell you.

Dive off a cliff, jump from a plane,
Oh, it's not easy other than what I've got to say,
Go for a swim, with sharks in the sea,
Oh, it's not easy other than me telling it to you straight,

I've got nothing to lose
I've got nothing to lose but you,
If I just say nothing, you'll never hear the truth,
I can't keep using the same dumb excuse
'Cause, I've got nothing to lose,
I've got nothing to lose
But you

To get you to laugh, to get you to smile,
To get you to tell the world that you're on my side,
Make me a star at least in your eyes,
Lets take on the world, but first,
I got to make you mine,

Dive off a cliff, jump from a plane,
Oh, it's not easy other than what I've got to say,
Go for a swim, with sharks in the sea,
Oh, it's not easy other than me telling it to your face.

I've got nothing to lose
I've got nothing to lose but you,
If I just say nothing, you'll never hear the truth,
I cant keep using the same dumb excuse
'Cause, I've got nothing to lose,
I've got nothing to lose
But you

Though the words ain't coming out,
But tonight, it's going down
I should be brave, with nothing to lose,
That's how I was until the day I met you,

I've got nothing to lose
I've got nothing to lose but you,
If I just say nothing, you'll never hear the truth,
I can't keep using the same dumb excuse
'Cause, I've got nothing to lose,
I've got nothing to lose
But you

Though the words ain't coming out,
But tonight, it's going down




I've got nothing to lose
I've got nothing to lose but you.
