WE MET IN COLLEGE.
I WORKED TWO JOBS TO PAY MY OWN WAY THROUGH,
AND WE HAD A DREAM
TO BUILD A LIFE LIKE LOVERS DO.
NOTHING COULD STOP US.
I WAS GONNA GIVE THE WORLD TO HER,
NOW I MISS THE WAY WE WERE.

CHRISTINE GOT HURT,
NEEDED SOMETHING FOR THE PAIN--
JUST PILLS AT FIRST,
THEN ANY FIX WOULD BE OKAY.
WE FADED TO NOTHING,
AND EVERY HIGH MADE US BELIEVE
WE COULDN’T MAKE IT ON OUR OWN.

LOVE, IS LETTING GO,
IT’S FALLING HARD BEFORE YOU KNOW.
IT’S GIVING IN WITHOUT A FIGHT.
IT’S SEEING EVERYTHING, AND CHOOSING TO GO BLIND

TO WHO YOU LOVE. WHO YOU LOVE
ISN’T UP TO US.
YOU CAN TRY TO FIGHT IT,
BUT YOU CAN’T HELP, WHO YOU LOVE.
I WAS A DANCER--
THEY SAID I WAS A NATURAL FROM THE START.
AND I HAD A DREAM
TO BE A PRIMA BALLERINA AND A STAR,
BUT HE WAS ROMANTIC--
HE WAS GONNA GIVE THE WORLD TO ME.
I WAS ONLY SEVENTEEN.

HE KNEW BEST
SO I QUIT MY COMPANY.
THE MUSIC STOPPED,
THEN HE GREW COLD AND HE GOT MEAN--
SAID I WAS NOTHING.
AND EVERY BRUISE MADE ME BELIEVE
I COULDN’T MAKE IT ON MY OWN.

LOVE, IS LETTING GO,
IT’S FALLING HARD BEFORE YOU KNOW,
IT’S GIVING IN WITHOUT A FIGHT.
IT’S SEEING EVERYTHING, AND CHOOSING TO GO BLIND

TO WHO YOU LOVE. WHO YOU LOVE,
ISN’T UP TO US.
YOU CAN TRY TO FIGHT IT,
BUT YOU CAN’T HELP, WHO YOU LOVE.

I RAN OFF LOOKING FOR
MYSELF, AGAIN
WE SAID WE’D START
ANOTHER LIFE.
I MADE A PROMISE I WOULD
DANCE AGAIN
I WOULDN’T LET US
FALL THIS TIME.
Oh

LOVE IS LETTING GO,
IT’S FALLING HARD BEFORE YOU KNOW.
IT’S GIVING IN WITHOUT A FIGHT.
IT’S SEEING EVERYTHING, AND CHOOSING TO GO BLIND

‘CAUSE WHO YOU LOVE, WHO YOU LOVE
ISN’T UP TO US.
YOU CAN TRY TO FIGHT IT,
BUT YOU CAN’T HELP WHO YOU LOVE.
WHO YOU LOVE
ISN’T UP TO US.
YOU CAN TRY TO FIGHT IT,
BUT YOU CAN’T HELP WHO YOU LOVE.
