falling in love with you
scared
when you’re gunna have to choose
convenience or desire
nervous
the fire will wear out because of distance
I don’t wanna be a home wrecker
but I can’t help that I’m falling for you

you make me smile
make me laugh
forget all the distance
and forgive my past

never thought I’d be falling for you
but I am
and I don’t know what to do

so used to biting my tongue
and walking away
hope you get used to my ambivalence
and stay

and now all I gotta do
is hold my breath and pray
cause I’m falling for you
