I Don't Want To Fall In Love is part conversation and part soliloquy, reflecting on the uncertainty, giddiness and all-consuming process of falling in love.
lyrics
She said call on me baby, well don’t be afraid to call
It’s a long wait and maybe you’re lonely after all
We can talk till the daybreak if that’s what you wanna do
It’s a long wait and maybe I’m fallin’, fallin’ for you
I just broke out my shell now I’m making yours my own
This could put me through hell but that’s something I’ll have to own
Because those eyes are divine and I want to know that mind like my own
But I don’t wanna fall in love
I don’t wanna fall in love
Not if I can help it, no
I don’t wanna fall in love
I don’t wanna fall in love
I don’t wanna fall in love, no.
Well I don’t wanna trap you, I just wanna keep you to myself for a little while if that’s alright with you
‘Cause I got people in my world who just won’t understand
That I want so badly to be your girl
And oh how I want you to be my man
But I don’t wanna fall in love
I don’t wanna fall in love
Not if I can help it, no
I don’t wanna fall in love
I don’t wanna fall in love
I don’t wanna fall in love
But if I was to, it would be with you dear
Drowning out my worst fear
Of loosing everything I’ve fought so hard to keep
And I know now
This ain’t gonna slow down
Yes I know now
This ain’t gonna slow down
