I said, "Boy can I tell you a wonderful thing? I can't help but notice, you're staring at
me. I know I shouldn't say this, but I really
believe,I can tell by your eyes that you're in Love with me."
Now Son, I'm only telling you this because life can do terrible things.
Now most of the time we'd have too much to drink
and we'd laugh at the stars and we'd share everything
Too young to notice and too dumb to care Love was a story that couldn't compare
He said, "Girl, can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I made you a present with paper and string. Open with care, now, I'm asking you please,
you know that I love you, will you will you marry me?"
Now Son, I'm only telling you this because life can do terrible things.
You'll learn one day, I'll hope and I'll pray, that God shows you differently.
He said, "Girl, can I tell you a terrible thing?
It seems that I'm sick and I've only got weeks. Please don't be sad now, I really believe
You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me."
Slow, so slow. I fell to my ground on my knees.
So don't fall in love, there's just too much to lose
If given the choice then I'm begging you choose To walk away, walk away, don't let it get
you I can't bear to see the same happen to you.
Now Son, I'm only telling you this because life can do terrible things.
