Nothing to Lose
Kylie Minogue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

INTRO:
Gotta take a chance
Gotta make a move
Got everything to gain
And nothing to lose
Ah - nothing to lose

1a:
Last night
I fell asleep
I made up my mind
What I would say to you, and
This time
I'd make you see
It's her or me
Nothing can come between us

1b:
I won't share you
With any other girl
'cause I've got my pride, I've

CHORUS:
Gotta take a chance
Gotta make a move
Got everything to gain
And nothing to lose
Ah - nothing to lose
Everything to gain
And nothing to lose

2:
But I realized
You may decide
That maybe you just don't want me
And I may lose your love
But if that's the price
I have to pay for you, then

Maybe that's just the chance
I have to take
I made up my mind, I

CHORUS:
(repeat 2 times)

1b:





CHORUS:
(repeat & fade)
