If I Dare

If I dare to ask it, then I dare it to be true
If I dare to risk it, then I know that I’m willing to
If I dare to want this, to want more than I have
Then I dare to believe I’ll have it in the end
You climbed the mountain, sent pictures of the view
And still can’t believe when I started climbing, too
You haven’t heard that I’m not afraid to fall
That I’m not deterred yet until I tell them all
I am holding out for more than what I have now
I’m holding out
I don’t want your pity, I won’t use your little scraps
I don’t build my cities with what could get taken back
I don’t need permission to rise up when it hurts
You don’t have to listen, but you’ll hear me
Mark my words
I am holding out for more than what I have now
I’m holding out
When the room gets dark, and I am quiet
There’s a voice that’s soft, like someone’s silhouette
Saying, «Don't let me go yet»
I am holding out
I am holding out for more than what I have now
I’m holding out
If I dare to ask it, then I dare it to be true
(Believe me, I will be)
If I dare to risk it, then I know that I’m willing to
If I dare to want this, to want more than i have
(Believe me, I will be)
Then I dare to believe I’ll have it in the end
