Falling Deeper

I pretended your eyes didn’t catch my gaze

I told my friends I didn’t want to look your way

I walked away when I saw you

And acted like you were just another guy

I was just a passer-by

 

When you grabbed my hand that day

I tried so hard to walk away

And told myself I didn’t want you

But all around me everybody knew

There was nothing I could do

 

I can’t stop falling

I can’t start running

I can’t do anything

To get away

Your hearts got mine

And I’m falling deeper, deeper all the time

I’m in love with you---

 

For so long I’ve tried to get over you

I pretend that I don’t have a clue

Everybody tells me you’re bad news

And I try to listen all the time

But then your blue eyes capture mine

 

I can’t stop falling

I can’t start running

I can’t do anything

To get away

Your hearts got mine

And I’m falling deeper, deeper all the time

I’m in love with you

 

Sometimes I cry

Sometimes I laugh

You do crazy things to me

Sometimes I miss you

Sometimes I hate you

But no matter what

 

I can’t stop falling

I can’t start running

I can’t do anything

To get away

Your hearts got mine

And I’m falling deeper, deeper all the time

I’m in love with you

I’m in love with you

I’m falling deeper

Making your heart part of mine
