I told myself there's no harm in just bein' friends She belongs to another but it won't hurt to see her again Now she's here in my arms and I'm tryin' to pretend it's not wrong You don't really know how far you can go till you're already gone Don't take no chances, be careful and no one will know But when she comes around I can't help it if my feelin's show Now the whole town is talking and the one that really loves me is gone You don't really know how far you can go till you're already gone I called her up and she says she can't see me again She's found another but still thinks of me as a friend Looks like I've gained a friend but I've lost everything that I own You don't really know how far you can go till you're already gone You don't really know how far you can go till you're already gone
