I never wanted to fall in love
Because I thought it only caused pain;
I’ve seen the tears, the devastation,
Watched it tear them all apart.
I never wanted to fall in love
Because they said I was never good enough,
But after that one night, things started to change…

I can’t control the butterflies as soon as you come my way,
I get lost inside your eyes where I wish that I could stay.
I feel my whole world brighten when I get to have you by my side,
You make me feel so safe, as though no one can hurt me now.
And even though I don’t see you as much as I would like,
The times I share with you, I wouldn’t change for anything.

I always have you on my mind, just wondering if you are fine?
I get lost in a daydream where it’s just you and I; no distance between.
The feelings in my heart when I can stay in your arms, it makes me smile.
There is so much I want to say, but I’m too scared I’d look a fool…
So for now, when you’re with me I’ll just look at you and smile
Because I know that it’s only you I’ll want in my life.

I’ve always been so scared of letting anyone get close
Because all they’ve ever done is walk away…
I’ve never had someone like you who believes in me wholeheartedly
It is safe to say you’ve stole my heart and that’s the truth.
So maybe all their words don’t really mean a thing?
I honestly couldn’t ask for anyone better to have right by my side.

I never wanted to fall in love
Because I thought it only caused pain.
But once again, you’ve proven me wrong.
I never wanted to fall in love
Because I didn’t believe I was worth anything
But you’ve shown me I am…
I’ve fallen in love with you and I never want to take that back!
