Did you ever fall in love with someone, and knew they didn’t care?
Did you ever feel like crying, but knew it wouldn’t get you anywhere?
Did you ever look into their eyes and say a little prayer?
Did you ever look into their heart and find that you weren’t there?
Did you ever see them walk away, watch as they turn and go and whisper “God, I love you,” but never let them know?
You’ll cry out in misery and almost go insane, 'cause there’s nothing in this world that causes so much pain…
If I could choose between love and death
I think I’d rather die, 'cause love is so great and hurts so much and the rate you pay is so high…
So when I say, “Don’t fall in love, you’ll be hurt before it’s through,” believe me,
I ought to know, I fell in love with you.
