Lyrics

Was it worth it?

Well I don't know why
I was dreaming about you
but I do know that
I was dancing without you
Then you smiled
and I was lost
You fall in love
Why count the cost?
All I gave to you
All you made me do
I react
when I hear people ask

Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth living for
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth giving more

If I'd had my way
this would have happened much sooner
but until that day
it was only a rumour
All at once
you changed my life
and led me in
to paradise
where I had to do
what I wanted to
I react
when I hear people ask

Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth living for
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth giving more

I reserve
the right to live
my life this way
and I don't give
a damn when I
hear people say
I'll pay the price
that others pay

'cause it's worth it
Yes it's worth living for
'cause it's worth it
Yes it's worth living for

All I gave to you
All you made me do
I react
when I hear people ask

Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth living for
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth giving more

And I reserve (What?)
the right to live (Where?)
my life this way (How?)
I couldn't give
a damn when I (What?)
hear people say (Who?)
I'll pay the price
that others pay

'cause it's worth it
Yes it's worth living for
'cause it's worth it
Yes it's worth giving more
and it's worth it

I don't know why
I never thought I'd fall in love
