It only causes pain-

You give it every part of you

And yet nothing to gain.

You wait around for them to call,

You see them in your mind,

They say they'll spend some time with you

But the time they do not find.

And every time that they walk by

Your heart skips a beat-

A tingle runs all thru your spine

That makes your knees go weak.

You always wonder where they are,

You wonder if they'll call;

Who they're spending time with

And are they missing you at all.

People say that love is grand

But the price you pay is high.

If I could choose between love and death

I'd rather choose to die.

So when I say don't fall in love

You'll be hurt before you're through;

You see, my friend, I ought to know-

I fell in love with you.~
