better to have loved lyrics

Better to have loved
Better to have loved

Ohh, ohh, if the sun went down tomorrow and it never came back
And the city went quiet and we fade to black
Well, I, I won't have a single regret and I wouldn't change a thing
'Cuz I never knew I could feel what I feel inside of me

Better to have loved than never loved at all
Better to have dreamed than never taken the fall
Better to have held you and let you in
Than never to have touched your skin

Better to have hurt and screamed and cried
Fallen to the earth for a trip to the sky
Better to have loved you, you, you, oh

I knew all the time I was taking my chance
When I stand there at the edge of the cliff
And no one was holding my hand
Well, the wind blew strong and the clouds rolled in and I
I felt I slipped off the ground, yes, I, I bared my soul and I dared to go
Knowing one day you might let me down, oh

Better to have loved than never loved at all
Better to have dreamed than never taken the fall
Better to have held you and let you in
Than never to have touched your skin

Better to have hurt and screamed and cried
Fallen to the earth for a trip to the sky
Better to have loved you

I gave you everything
But you have said, goodbye
Yeah, said, goodbye

Better to have loved than never loved at all
Better to have dreamed than never taken the fall
Better to have held you and let you in
Than never to have touched your skin

Better to have hurt and screamed and cried
Fallen to the earth for a trip to the sky
Better to have loved
Better to have loved you
