If I Dare Sara Bareilles

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 1]
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

[Hook]
I am holding out for more than what I have now
I'm holding out

[Verse 2]
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

[Hook]
I am holding out for more than what I have now
I'm holding out
