[Verse 1: Shawn & Nate]
In this world today
Love is scarce and far away
And your heart gets so afraid to trust someone
All the times he let you down
There was no love to be found
Well it's not the end
There'll be time to mend
And you'll love again
[Chorus]
Never, Never let a broken heart
Take a chance for love away
Don't never let it make you fall apart
Never, Never ever let the pain
Take your need for love away
Never, no never
[Verse 2: Wanya]
And I know it seems hard
Open up let down your guards
But you owe it to your heart
To try again
Oh comes the time
When we must change
What the past has thrown away
Don't take the blame
Don't be ashamed
Throw your fears away
[Chorus]
Never, Never let a broken heart
Take a chance for love away
Don't never let it make you fall apart
Never, Never ever let the pain
Take your need for love away
Never, no never
[Bridge: Nate & Wanya]
I know don't be afraid
Or you will never find
Another one you love again
I know that you'll be sorry girl
Be strong before it's too late
Because forever is too long
For you to live in pain
Just don't give up
Please open up to love
To love, to love
[Chorus]
Never, Never let a broken heart
Take a chance for love away
Don't never let it make you fall apart
Never, Never ever let the pain
Take your need for love away
Never, no never
[Outro]
Never, Never let a broken heart
Take a chance for love away
Don't never let it make you fall apart
Never, Never ever let the pain
Take your need for love away
Never, no never
[Wanya adlibs]
So don't be afraid
You'll love again
No you don't have to live in pain
Its never too late
You'll find a way to love
Girl don't be afraid
You'll love again
Girl you don't have to live in pain
When there's a way
You'll find a way
It's never too late
You'll find a way to love
In this world today
Love is scarce and far away
And your heart gets so afraid to trust someone
All the times he let you down
There was no love to be found
Well it's not the end
There'll be time to mend
And you'll love again
[Chorus]
Never, Never let a broken heart
Take a chance for love away
Don't never let it make you fall apart
Never, Never ever let the pain
Take your need for love away
Never, no never
[Verse 2: Wanya]
And I know it seems hard
Open up let down your guards
But you owe it to your heart
To try again
Oh comes the time
When we must change
What the past has thrown away
Don't take the blame
Don't be ashamed
Throw your fears away
[Chorus]
Never, Never let a broken heart
Take a chance for love away
Don't never let it make you fall apart
Never, Never ever let the pain
Take your need for love away
Never, no never
[Bridge: Nate & Wanya]
I know don't be afraid
Or you will never find
Another one you love again
I know that you'll be sorry girl
Be strong before it's too late

To love, to love

Never, Never let a broken heart
Take a chance for love away
Don't never let it make you fall apart
Never, Never ever let the pain
Take your need for love away
Never, no never

You'll find a way
It's never too late
You'll find a way to love
