why do you call me?
i gotta warn my heart
i don't ever wanna hurt you
but you always make me

careful, careful darling
you're gonna fall on your face
i don't wanna be the one to save you
it isn't my place
but if i could i would
if i could i'd fall in love again
heaven knows how hard i've tried
if i could i'd fall in love with you
there ain't enough time in my day
to give you what you need
oh you want all of me baby
but you know i can't give it away
you must not hear yourself talking
and all the things you say
i gotta shake my head and wonder
what could make you want to stay
if i could i'd fall in love again
heaven knows how hard i've tried
if i could i'd fall in love with you
baby look before you leap into the fire
maybe you're worth a little more than just desire
truth is all i ever wanted when i told you
truth is all i ever wanted was to hold you
nothing else matters
except the way we feel
i guess nobody ever told you
so how will i know you hear?
there ain't no easy way around this
no soothing words to say
it's gone as quickly as we found it
might as well be on my way
if i could i'd fall in love again
heaven knows how hard i've tried
if i could i'd fall in love with you
