THEY SAY THAT ONLY FOOLS FALL IN LOVE,

THEY SAY DON'T FALL IN LOVE IT WILL BRING YOU NOTHING BUT GRIEF,
MAN THAT MAKES ME FEEL BETTER WHAT A RELIEF.
THEY SAY THAT YOU NEVER TRUELY GET OVER
YOUR FIRST LOVE,
AND YOU KNOW IT MUST BE TRUE,
BECAUSE EVEN AFTER ALL THESE YEARS,
I'M STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU.
THEY SAY THAT YOU ARE ONLY AS STRONG AS YOUR GREATEST WEAKNESS,
AND IT MUST BE TRUE, BECAUSE WHEN I LOOK AT YOU I HAVE NO STRENGH LEFT.
THEY SAY TIME HEALS ALL WOUNDS, BUT I DON'T THINK THAT IS TRUE,
BECAUSE I AM STILL DEALING WITH THE SCARS THAT WERE CAUSED BY YOU.
THE PAIN IS STILL RAW AND IT RUNS DEEP,
MAN WHY DO I GOTTA MAKE PROMISES
I KNOW I'M GOING TO KEEP.
YOU ALWAYS FIND AWAY TO RUN ACROSS MY MIND,
OVER THE YEARS I HAVE LOST TRACK
OF THE NUMBER OF TIMES.
THEY SAY SOMETIMES NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY, YOU CAN NEVER TRUELY LET GO,
AND THAT IS A FACT THAT FAR TO WELL I KNOW.
THEY SAY THAT IF YOU PLAY WITH FIRE
YOU WILL GET BURNED,
THAT IS A HARD LESSON THAT I HAVE ALREADY LEARNED.

AND TRUST ME AND BELEIVE ME
I ALREADY KNOW ABOUT THAT.

AND I GUESS IT IS TRUE,
BECAUSE FAR TO MANY THINGS I OVERLOOKED, BECAUSE I LOVED YOU.
THEY SAY THAT IN TIME I WILL LEARN TO LET GO,
BUT IF I WILL OR NOT I DON'T YET KNOW.
THEY TOLD ME THAT YOU WOULD HURT ME,
AND OH HOW I WISH THAT IT WAS NOT TRUE,
BUT NO ONE HAS EVER HURT ME LIKE YOU.
THEY SAY THAT YOU WOULD THINK I WAS CRAZY IF YOU KNEW I STILL FEEL THIS WAY,
BUT AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
I JUST WANT TO KNOW,
WHAT CRIME DID I COMMIT?
WHY MUST I STILL PAY?
I DON'T THINK YOU WILL EVER UNDERSTAND,
THAT I AM THE ONLY PERSON IN YOUR LIFE THAT HAS EVER LOVED YOU THIS MUCH,
THAT YOU HAVE ALWAYS BEEN RIGHT
OUT OF MY REACH,
YOUR HEART TO FAR AWAY FOR ME TO TOUCH.
THEY SAY THAT YOUR HAPPY, AND REALY I AM HAPPY FOR YOU,
BUT SHE WILL NEVER LOVE YOU,
THE WAY THAT I DO.
