FALLING OUT OF LOVE
WITH YOU

LYRICS:

Verse One
Well, the first time I saw you I did a triple double take,
My knees got weak and I started to shake,
Honey, that was even before you ever turned around;
I didn’t even see the fella you were holdin’,
But I caught the reflection from his band of gold, and
Like a house of cards, my world came tumblin’ down.

Chorus
I’ve been to the top of Katmandu, crawled through the sands of Timbuktu,
But the hardest thing I’ll never do is falling out of love with you.

Verse Two
When I see your picture or hear your name,
My heart starts pumpin’ like a runaway train,
My friends don’t get it, but they never did understand;
‘Cuz when I see you on the street I stop and linger,
But that little chip o’ diamond sittin’ on your finger,
Tells me, baby, I’ll never be your lovin’ man.

Chorus
I’ve been to the top of Katmandu, crawled through the sands of Timbuktu,
But the hardest thing I’ll never do is falling out of love with you.

Bridge
I’ve been through hell and I didn’t get burned,
I even did my own tax return,
Now I’m lookin’ for some lesson I could learn.

Verse Three
I’m just a blind man starin’ straight into the sun,
A ‘59 Chevy whose race is run,
A tree fallin’ in the forest that no one hears;
So I guess I’m gonna have to learn to live without you,
But tonight I’m gonna stay awake and dream about you,
Sittin’ on a barstool, drownin’ in my own tears.

Final Chorus
I’ve been to the top of Katmandu, crawled through the sands of Timbuktu,
But the hardest thing I’ll never do is falling out of love with you;
I’ve been ‘round the world and back again,
But your love I’ll never win,
And the hardest thing I’ll never do,
Is falling out of love
B-b-baby with you!
