You're not alone, no

And no one's gonna hurt your heart again

And this I know, yes

You can count on me, I'll be there as your friend

For no one knows the pain that you've endured

They took the best from you

Girl, I know

You gave 'em all ya got



You tried, they played around

You cried, they let you down

You gave 'em everything you had

They treated you oh so bad



Given a chance

I'd make it up to you

Given a chance

I'd prove this world was wrong

Given a chance

I'd give my all to you

I'd teach this world a lesson

And I'd never let you fall

Given a chance



It's not yuor fault

That you were born with such a trusting heart

Erase that thought

You're so beautiful, please stay the way you are

And no one understands how much it hurts

You tried to make it work

Girl I know

You gave it all you got



Don't cry, it's over now

Don't sigh, things are better now

I will give you everything you need

You can always count on me



Given a chance

I'd make it up to you

Given a chance

I'd prove this world was wrong

Given a chance

I'd give my all to you

I'd teach this world a lesson

And I'd n-n-n-n-never let you fall



Don't cry, it's over now

Don't sigh, things are better now

I will give you everything you need

You can always count on me



Given a chance

I'd make it up to you

Given a chance

I'd prove this world was wrong

Given a chance

I'd give my all to you

I'm gonna teach this world a lesson

And I'm n-n-n-n-never gonna let you fall
