Lyrics
0:04I thought sometime alone
0:04Was what we really needed
0:08You said this time would hurt more than it helps
0:11But I couldn't see that
0:16I thought it was the end
0:19Of a beautiful story
0:24And so I left the one I loved at home to be alone （alone）
0:32And I tried to find
0:34Out if this one thing is true
0:38That I'm nothing without you
0:42I know better now
0:44And I've had a change of heart
0:48I'd rather have bad times with you than good times with someone else
0:56I'd rather be beside you in a storm than safe and warm by myself
1:04I'd rather have hard times together than to have it easy apart
1:13I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
1:19Whoo-oo-oo-oo yeah
1:24And then I met someone
1:28And thought she could replace you
1:32We got a long just fine
1:34We wasted time because she was not you
1:40We had a lot of fun
1:43Though we knew we were faking
1:48Love was not impressed with our connection built on lies all lies
1:56So I'm here cause I found this one thing is true
2:02That I'm nothing without you
2:06I know better now
2:08And I've had a change of heart
2:12I'd rather have bad times with you than good times with someone else
2:20I'd rather be beside you in a storm than safe and warm by myself
2:28I'd rather have hard times together than to have it easy apart
2:37I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
2:44Who holds my heart
2:48I can't blame you if you turn away from me like I've done you
2:56I can only prove the things I say with time
3:02Please be mine
3:04I'd rather have bad times with （please be mine） you
3:09Than good times with someone else （I know）
3:12I'd rather be beside you in a storm （anytime）
3:16Than safe and warm by myself （so sure baby）
3:20I'd rather have hard times to gether
3:24Than to have it easy apart
3:28I'd rather have the one who holds my heart （my heart）
3:33I'd rather have bad times with you （surely）
3:40Than good times with someone else （surely）
3:44I'd rather be beside you in a storm （oh yeah）
3:49Than safe and warm by myself （all by myself）
3:53I'd rather have hard times together
3:56Than to have it easy apart （you know it）
4:01I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
4:09I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
4:17I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
4:28Whoooo who holds my heart
