Rhyme)
I
reached out my hand for you
In
the midst of pain and strife
You
moved me to take a chance
In
this crazy game we all call life
Ups
and downs, highs and lows
Give
and take, make or break
Lots
to lose, with high stakes
I
could have crashed and burned
Instead
I rose up to meet you
Flying
higher than ever dreamed
Still
hard to believe it's true
Ups
and downs, highs and lows
Give
and take, make or break
Lots
to lose, with high stakes
Ups
and downs
(Downs
and ups)
Highs
and lows
(Lows
and highs)
Ups
and downs
(Downs
and ups)
Highs
and lows
(Lows
and highs)
Please
oh please don't let me fall
It's
a long way back down there
To
the place that I left behind
I
plead, handle me with care
Ups
and downs, highs and lows
Give
and take, make or break
Lots
to lose, with high stakes
Ups
and downs
Highs
and lows
That's
exactly how love goes
