[Verse 1]
Don't put your cover up, you know it's bad for your health
And, when the going's tough, you're way too hard on yourself
I wish you'd open up, and I'd lend a little to help
Before you dive off the deep end
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, you hold me like you want me
But you don't give me nothin' else
Feel this happening, but you feel absent
Can you tell me what it is?
[Chorus]
And she said this
"Haven't you ever been in love before?
You heard 'em say, it takes the pain away
And it's a feelin' that you can't ignore"
But it's more like a knife to mе than a high to me
And my heart can't fall apart anymore
If you knеw what I knew, you'd be terrified
Haven't you ever been in love before?
[Verse 2]
If we don't work it out, that's something I could accept
But I feel you're ruling out a love that ain't happened yet
And, maybe I'm a fool, but I just can't live with regret
I'd rather dive off the deep end
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, you hold me like you want me
But you don't give me nothin' else
Feel this happening, but you feel absent
Can you tell me what it is?
[Chorus]
And she said this
"Haven't you ever been in love before?
You heard 'em say, it takes the pain away
And it's a feelin' that you can't ignore"
But it's more like a knife to me than a high to me
And my heart can't fall apart anymore
If you knew what I knew, you'd be terrified
Haven't you ever been in love before?
[Bridge]
Well, we could be falling
Falling
There's nothing I want more than all that you've got
'Cause I'm falling
[Chorus]
And she said this
"Haven't you ever been in love before?
You heard 'em say, it takes the pain away
And it's a feelin' that you can't ignore"
But it's more like a knife to me than a high to me
And my heart can't fall apart anymore
If you knew what I knew, you'd be terrified
Haven't you ever been in love before?
