I know that you're afraid to love   You've been hurt before   Love broke your heart so you closed the door   Now here I am outside your world      Wishin' you'd let me in   Give me half a chance to prove you wrong   Baby, all your tears have come and gone   Talkin' 'bout a brand new start      Take it to heart, baby, believe it   This love is so strong that it won't let you go   Baby, hold on, you'll see   Just how good it's gonna be      It's gonna be here long as you need it   Never take your world and tear it apart   Take it to heart, baby      You're gonna have to trust someone   It's a shame if you don't   Because it ain't no life living all alone   Let me show you how to love again      There's no broken heart that love won't mend   Talkin' 'bout a brand new start   I just want to be the one that'll be there by your side   So take this love of mine, take it to heart      Baby, believe it, this love is so strong, love is so strong, baby      (love is a second chance to find all that we lost)   (Love's always worth a try no matter what the cost)   (I know you don't believe your tears have come and gone)   (Give me but half a chance and I will prove you wrong)
