Don't say love and then turm me away

Don't be playin' the game that you don't know the meaning of

And if you can't say forever don't say love.



On T.V. and in the movies and in nearly every song

People say the words, “I love you” ‘til the meaning's nearly gone

If you've never felt the way that only true love makes you feel

Then you still won't understand it and no words can make it real.



Don't say love if you don't mean what you say

Don't say love and then turn me away

Don't be playing the game that you don't know the meaning of

And if you can't say forever don't say love.



It's all right to say you like me or I'm fun to be around

But don't say love unless you mean it ‘cause that really brings me down

This is not a one-time feeling I'm not out for just a thrill

And I've got to know for certain that your love for me is real.



Don't say love if you don't mean what you say

Don't say love and then turn me away

Don't be playing a game if you don't know the meaning of

And if you can't say forever don't say love.



Don't say love if you don't mean what you say

Don't say love and then turn me away

Don't be playing the game that you don't know the meaning of

And if you can't say forever don't say love.



And if you can't say forever don't say love...
