I'm through playin' it safe
It's time I laid it on the line
I want to dance out on the edges
And get a little reckless in my mind
Cause even a heart that's locked away
Can find a way to break
I won't hide it now
I'm through makin' that mistake

One fall, that's all
I don't know who it's gonna be
Out there, somewhere
Someone is waitin' just for me
No pain, no gain
There's not a chance that I won't take
'Cause love is always worth the ache

Love's like a Vegas wheel
You've got to spin to win the prize
(you know you got to, you know you got to,
you know you got to spin to win the prize)
But it's a gamble worth the takin'
You say a prayer and then you roll the dice
(you say a prayer and, you say a prayer
and, you say a prayer and, and you roll the dice)
Well they say it's hard to beat the odds
I say it's harder not to try
I will play the game
Do what it takes to get it right

One fall, that's all
I don't know who it's gonna be
Out there, somewhere
Someone is waiting just for me
No pain, no gain
There's not a chance that I won't take
'Cause love is always worth the ache

Well they say it's better to have loved and lost
Then to have never loved at all
Ah yeah yeah yeah

One fall, that's all
I don't know who it's gonna be
Out there, somewhere
Someone is waiting just for me
No pain, no gain
There's not a chance that I won't take
'Cause love is always worth the ache

(It's always, it's always, it's always)
Yeah it's always worth the ache
(It's always, it's always, it's always)
Oh love is worth the ache
(It's always, it's always, it's always)
Yeah love is always worth the ache
(It's always, it's always, it's always)
Yeah
You know there's not a chance I won't take
'Cause love is always worth the ache
