Don't Fall in Love


Pray you never find out what it’s like to be in love

Because once you’ve had a little taste, you just can’t get enough

When you have that very first kiss and you’re thinking he’s the one

But then he leaves you, and you’re sobbing, because you’re all alone

Pray you never find out what it’s like to be in love

Because once you’re thinking about forever, you start to lose your touch

When you are next to him, you feel like you’re floating above

Where nothing can reach you, no one can see the person you’ve become

Pray you never find out what it’s like to lose your love

Because once you’ve been in love a while, you just can’t get enough

When you memorize his very smell because you know that he’s the one

But then he’s leaving, and you’re broken, because you’re on your own

Pray you never find out what it’s like to lose your love

Because once you thought you’d have forever, but now you’re moving on

When you were by his side feeling like nothing could go wrong

But now reality’s hit you hard and it’s time to sing this song.
