She's got forever in her eyes
Does she have it in her heart?
'Cause you don't need no compromise
You gotta know right from the start
I don't mean to bring you down
Just don't be too blind to see
Before you go off makin' love
Look what love has made of me
I've been standing in your shoes
And you gotta watch your step
'Cause the road you're goin' down
It can lead right to regret
I'm not sayin' that it will
I just know how it can be
Before you go off makin' love
Look what love has made of me
You don't have to heed my words
You'll do what you gotta do
If the tables do get turned
And she's not your dream come true
Take it from a kindred soul
That kind of hurt can run real deep
Before you go off makin' love
Look what love has made of me
Yeah, take it from someone who knows
Those kinds of lessons don't come cheap
Before you go off makin' love
Just look what love has made of me yeah
