I'm here, just like I said...
Though it's breaking every rule I've ever made.
My racing heart is just the same;
Why make it strong to break it once again?
And I'd love to say "I do";
Give everything to you.
But I could never now be true...
[Chorus]
So I say...
I think I'd better leave right now
Before I fall any deeper.
I think I'd better leave right now;
Feeling weaker and weaker.
Somebody better show me how
Before I fall any deeper.
I think I'd better leave right now.
I'm here, so please explain
Why you're opening up a healing wound again.
I'm a little more careful,
Perhaps it shows.
But if I lose the highs,
At least I'm spared the lows.
Now I tremble in your arms
What could be the harm
To feel my spirit calm?
[Chorus]
I wouldn't know how to say
How good it feels seeing you today
I see you've got your smile back -
Like you say, you're right on track
But you may never know why -
Once bitten, twice as shy.
If I'm proud, perhaps I should explain:
I couldn't bear to lose you again.
[Chorus]
Yes, I will.
I think I'd better leave right now;
I'm feeling weaker and weaker.
Somebody better show me how
Before I fall any deeper...
I think I'd better leave right now.
Though it's breaking every rule I've ever made.
My racing heart is just the same;
Why make it strong to break it once again?
And I'd love to say "I do";
Give everything to you.
But I could never now be true...
[Chorus]
So I say...
I think I'd better leave right now
Before I fall any deeper.
I think I'd better leave right now;
Feeling weaker and weaker.
Somebody better show me how
Before I fall any deeper.
I think I'd better leave right now.
I'm here, so please explain
Why you're opening up a healing wound again.
I'm a little more careful,
Perhaps it shows.
But if I lose the highs,
At least I'm spared the lows.
Now I tremble in your arms
What could be the harm
To feel my spirit calm?
[Chorus]
I wouldn't know how to say
How good it feels seeing you today
I see you've got your smile back -
Like you say, you're right on track
But you may never know why -
Once bitten, twice as shy.
If I'm proud, perhaps I should explain:
I couldn't bear to lose you again.
[Chorus]
Yes, I will.
I think I'd better leave right now;
I'm feeling weaker and weaker.
Somebody better show me how
Before I fall any deeper...
I think I'd better leave right now.
