It's better to have than it is to have not It's better to give until you've given everything you've got It's better to bleed for something which you believe in True love on your side, you're gonna win - oh It's better to look first before you leap It's better to stick out than to follow the sheep And when your heart is pumped about a thousand miles an hour You'll know love holds the secret, love holds the power Throw out all the hate, all over this land There's no sense in regrets, they're not part of the plan The world is your family we're all sisters and brothers Except for your parents, they're your fathers and mothers When you're blinded by darkness and your moment is weak Don't be afraid, it's alright to speak And when your heart is pumped about a thousand miles an hour You'll know love holds the secret, love holds the power It's better to want than it, say, to need But wanting can lead to really bad things like greed Throw out all your anger, throw out all your rage Throw open them doors now, don't you live in no cage Have faith in your friends, just take a chance - yeah Reach out your hands, you'll find the answer And when your heart is pumped about a thousand miles an hour You'll know love holds the secret - love holds the power
