DON’T YOU DARE!

 Heartbreak is a part of life
Ain’t that the honest truth
But don’t let it make you give up on love
For it is love that keeps our youth.
 
Don’t you ever settle
If someone’s not worth settling for
But neither get too unsettled
In a belief there’s always more.
 
Just be with the one who makes your heart tick
Makes it come alive
You’ll know it when you see it
Something just feels different inside.
 
Speak your damn truth
Show your damn heart
And if it doesn’t damn work
Make a new start.
 
If you love them
Let them know
If they don’t love you
Let them go.
 
Make the brave decisions
And when they don’t pay off
Be thankful for the life you’re living
And accept all risk comes at a cost.
 
And while it undoubtedly hurts
Maybe even feels like nothing could hurt worse
In reality what could possibly hurt worse?
Than never knowing if your love could of worked?
 
So speak your damn truth
Reveal your damn heart
And win or damn lose
It’s still the only move that’s smart.
 
Some say you’ve got to hide your love away
To hell with that crap
We’re all going out someday
But I ain’t going out like that.
 
Don’t leave room for regrets
That’s much worse than a cold hard no
Be brave with your heart
And you might just save your soul.
 
So many give up
Lose themselves in work and other things
But the heart must remain childlike
Do whatever makes it sing.
 
Keep love in your heart
And it will come again
It’s not a matter of if
I believe it’s just a matter of when.
 
Never quit on your love
Until your love quits on you
And you’ll leave this world good
No matter what comes through.
 
I’ll go out looking a fool
The same way I came in
With love there is no cool
And it’s about much more than the win.
 
So when your love falls apart
Believe, it will come again
And if you can still keep love in your heart
Then you deserve love my friend.
 
So keep love in your heart
And speak your damn truth
And don’t ever quit on your love
Until your love quits on you.
 
Speak your damn truth
Reveal your damn heart
And win or damn lose
It’s still the only move that’s smart.
 
Some say you’ve got to hide your love away
TO HELL WITH THAT CRAP!
We’re all going out someday
DON’T YOU DARE! Go out like that.
