[Verse 1: Neil Tennant]
Well I don't know why
I was dreaming about you
But I do know that
I was dancing without you
[Pre-Chorus 1: Neil Tennant]
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
[Chorus 1: Neil Tennant, Carol Kenyon, Guida De Palma & Tessa Niles]
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth living for
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth giving more
[Verse 2: Neil Tennant]
If I'd had my way
This would have happened much sooner
But until that day
It was only a rumour
[Pre-Chorus 2: Neil Tennant]
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
[Chorus 1: Neil Tennant, Carol Kenyon, Guida De Palma & Tessa Niles]
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth living for
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth giving more
[Post-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
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
[Chorus 2: Neil Tennant, Carol Kenyon, Guida De Palma & Tessa Niles]
'Cause it's worth it
Yes it's worth living for
'Cause it's worth it
Yes it's worth living for
[Interlude]
[Pre-Chorus 3: Neil Tennant]
All I gave to you, all you made me do
I react when I hear people ask
[Chorus 1: Neil Tennant, Carol Kenyon, Guida De Palma & Tessa Niles]
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth living for
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth giving more
[Post-Chorus: Neil Tennant, (Carol Kenyon, Guida De Palma & Tessa Niles)]
I reserve the right to live (What? Where?)
My life this way, and I don't give (How?)
A damn when I hear people say (What? Who?)
I'll pay the price that others pay
[Chorus 2: Neil Tennant, Carol Kenyon, Guida De Palma & Tessa Niles]
'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
[Interlude]
[Outro: Neil Tennant]
I don't know why
I never thought I'd fall in love
I don't know why
I don't know why
I never thought I'd fall in love
I don't know why
Well I don't know why
I was dreaming about you
But I do know that
I was dancing without you
[Pre-Chorus 1: Neil Tennant]
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
[Chorus 1: Neil Tennant, Carol Kenyon, Guida De Palma & Tessa Niles]
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth living for
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth giving more
[Verse 2: Neil Tennant]
If I'd had my way
This would have happened much sooner
But until that day
It was only a rumour
[Pre-Chorus 2: Neil Tennant]
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
[Chorus 1: Neil Tennant, Carol Kenyon, Guida De Palma & Tessa Niles]
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth living for
Was it worth it?
Yes it's worth giving more
[Post-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
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
[Chorus 2: Neil Tennant, Carol Kenyon, Guida De Palma & Tessa Niles]
'Cause it's worth it
Yes it's worth living for
'Cause it's worth it
Yes it's worth living for
[Interlude]
[Pre-Chorus 3: Neil Tennant]
All I gave to you, all you made me do
I react when I hear people ask
[Chorus 1: Neil Tennant, Carol Kenyon, Guida De Palma & Tessa Niles]
Was it worth it?

And it's worth it
[Interlude]
[Outro: Neil Tennant]
I don't know why
I never thought I'd fall in love
I don't know why
I don't know why
I never thought I'd fall in love
I don't know why
