Bravado

If we burn our wings 

Flying too close to the sun 

If the moment of glory 

Is over before it's begun 

If the dream is won 

Though everything is lost 

We will pay the price, 

But we will not count the cost 



When the dust has cleared 

And victory denied 

A summit too lofty 

River a little too wide 

If we keep our pride 

Though paradise is lost 

We will pay the price, 

But we will not count the cost 



And if the music stops 

There's only the sound of the rain 

All the hope and glory 

All the sacrifice in vain 

{And} if love remains 

Though everything is lost 

We will pay the price, 

But we will not count the cost
