i'm fallin for you
like a rock off a wall
i'm considering you
i don't wanna fall
into something new
something deep
something wrong
something cruel
something mean
i - i aint a fool
cuz if the tables were turned
you wouldn't want to be burned
you wouldn't wanna be lied to
and cheated on, and hurt.
it hasn't happened to me
i'm trying to avoid it
i'm savin myself, and i
i think you'd do it too.
so you can see where im comin from
im not makin this up
i don't want to sound dumb
but, please, please don't mess this up.
your dark hair,
and your chocolate eyes
make me want you
i don't wanna do
something irrational,
or irresponsible
i should stay to
myself and leave you alone
cuz if the tables were turned
you wouldn't want to be burned
you wouldn't wanna be lied to
and cheated on, and hurt.
it hasn't happened to me
i'm going to avoid it
i'm savin myself, and i
i think you'd do it too.
so you can see where im comin from
im not makin this up
i don't want to sound dumb
but, you're not gonna mess this up.
well, here we are
5 years later in life
driving in the car
and i'm your wife
baby in back
buckled in so tight
drivin to your mom's
for dinner tonight
and now the tables aren't turned
i've made up my mind
we're not gonna be burned
but i don't wanna press rewind
it didn't happen to me
i didn't need to avoid it
i tried to save myself from
something when there was nothing
i'm fallin for you
like a rock off a wall
i'm considering you
i don't wanna fall
