[Verse 1]
A rose will start to fade
Without rain and some warm sunshine
It will die every time
Fence, you're always on the fence
You're one foot in
Then you're back out again
I think it's time I let you know
Babe, I'm letting go
You don't have the right to choose
About me and you

[Chorus]
What good's a heart that's too damn tough to break
That's too damn cool to take a chance on love
Yeah, I took a chance on us
Now that I look like I'm just a fool
I think you oughta know
You're just a pretty faced fool who let one get away

[Verse 2]
Go, dance in those city lights
Until you're blind then maybe you'll see
It was me, it was me
I'm gonna learn to rise again
Like a thunderbolt, I'll strike again
I ain't gonna let you burn me out
So come on tell me now

[Chorus]
What good's a heart that's too damn tough to break?
That's too damn cool to take a chance on love
Yeah, I took a chance on us
Now that I look like I'm just a fool
I think you oughta know
You're just a pretty faced fool who let one get away

[Verse 2]
Go, dance in those city lights
Until you're blind then maybe you'll see
It was me, it was me
I'm gonna learn to rise again
Like a thunderbolt, I'll strike again
I ain't gonna let you burn me out
So come on tell me now

[Chorus]
What good's a heart that's too damn tough to break?
That's too damn cool to take a chance on love
Yeah, I took a chance on us
Now that I look like I'm just a fool
I think you oughta know
You're just a pretty faced fool who let one get away
What good's a heart that's too damn tough to break?
That's too damn cool to take a chance on love
Yeah I took a chance on us
Now that I feel like I'm just a fool
I think you oughta know
You're just a pretty faced fool who let one get away

[Outro]
You let me get away
