Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The day I first met you, you told me you'd never fall in love
But now that I get you, I know fear is what it really was
[Verse 2]
Now here we are
So close, yet so far
Haven't I passed the test?
When will you realize, baby, I'm not like the rest?
[Chorus]
Don't wanna break your heart, wanna give your heart a break
I know you're scared it's wrong, like you might make a mistake
There's just one life to live, and there's no time to wait, to waste
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break, oh yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
On Sunday, you went home alone, there were tears in your eyes
I called your cell phone, my love, but you did not reply
[Verse 4]
The world is ours if we want it
We can take it, if you just take my hand
There's no turning back now
Baby, try to understand
[Chorus]
Don't wanna break your heart, wanna give your heart a break
I know you're scared it's wrong, like you might make a mistake
There's just one life to live, and there's no time to wait, to waste
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
There's just so much you can take, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break, oh yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
When your lips are on my lips
Then our hearts beat as one
But you slipped out of my fingertips
Every time you run
[Chorus]
Don't wanna break your heart, wanna give your heart a break
Don't wanna break your heart
I know you're scared it's wrong, like you might make a mistake
I know you're scared it's wrong
There's just one life to live, and there's no time to wait, to waste
So let me give your heart a break
[Chorus]
'Cause you've been hurt before, I can see it in your eyes
You try to smile it away, some things you can't disguise
Don't wanna break your heart, baby, I can ease the ache, the ache
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
There's just so much you can take, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break, oh yeah, yeah
[Outro]
The day I first met you, you told me you'd never fall in love
