the alternative

Every car I get into could crash But oh, man, do I love going fast There's a chance that this plane's going down But I don't wanna stay on the ground Since I found myself another half Part of me says, "Don't get too attached" What if time's gonna number our days? Guess my heart's gonna break, either way Love is a risk But what's the alternative? Maybe sleeping at night all alone Going it all on my own Love is a risk (ah-ah-ah) But what's the alternative? (Ah-ah-ah-ah) When the planet keeps spinning around I'd be somewhere missing out (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Life is short, things could change in a blink Every time I jump in, I might sink But what better way to learn how to swim? So screw it, I'm diving back in Love is a risk But what's the alternative? Maybe sleeping at night all alone Going it all on my own Love is a risk (ah-ah-ah) But what's the alternative? (Ah-ah-ah-ah) When the planet keeps spinning around I'd be somewhere missing out (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) There's some days I can't believe you're really gone It's tempting me to build a fort out of our sheets To stay inside and never leave Love is a risk (ah-ah-ah) But what's the alternative? (Ah-ah-ah-ah) Maybe sleeping at night all alone Going it all on my own Love is a risk (ah-ah-ah) But what's the alternative? (Ah-ah-ah-ah) When the planet keeps spinning around I'd be somewhere missing out (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) What's the alternative?
