(mark d. sanders/ed hill)



I told mammatime to make my way now

I'll be departin` any day now

She dried a tear and whisperedwell ok now

Then she proceeded to offer me this advice

She said some night you're gonna find romance

Some boy who is gonna want a slow dance

You'll melt when he takes a hold of your hand

Well thats one time you might outta better think twice



Chorus:

Sometimes love strikes like lightning

Never seen nothing so exciting

Head over heals and thats where the trouble starts

Boys will lead you on like it's all or nothing

When they start that huffin` and a puffin`

Watch out for the big bad broken heart



Those boys don't know the word devotion

Passion is just a passing motion

They'll leave you bobbing in loves ocean

With a sea of tears welling up in your eyes



(repeat chorus)
