why do you call me?

i gotta warn my heart

i don't ever wanna hurt you

but you always make me

careful, careful darling

you're gonna fall on your face

i don't wanna be the one to save you

it isn't my place

but if i could i would

if i could i'd fall in love again

heaven knows how hard i've tried

if i could i'd fall in love with you

there ain't enough time in my day

to give you what you need

oh you want all of me baby

but you know i can't give it away

you must not hear yourself talking

and all the things you say

i gotta shake my head and wonder

what could make you want to stay

if i could i'd fall in love again

heaven knows how hard i've tried

if i could i'd fall in love with you

baby look before you leap into the fire

maybe you're worth a little more than just desire

truth is all i ever wanted when i told you

truth is all i ever wanted was to hold you

nothing else matters

except the way we feel

i guess nobody ever told you

so how will i know you hear?

there ain't no easy way around this

no soothing words to say

it's gone as quickly as we found it

might as well be on my way

if i could i'd fall in love again

heaven knows how hard i've tried

if i could i'd fall in love with you
