I'm here, just like I saidâ?¦ Though it's breaking every rule I've ever made. My racing heart is just the same; Why make it strong to break it once again? And I'd love to say â??I doâ??; Give everything to you. But I could never now be trueâ?¦ So I say, I think I'd better leave right now Before I fall any deeper. I think I'd better leave right now; Feeling weaker and weaker. Somebody better show me how Before I fall any deeper. I think I'd better leave right now. I'm here, so please explain Why you're opening up a healing wound again. I'm a little more careful, Perhaps it shows. But if I lose the highs, At least I'm spared the lows. Now I tremble in your arms What could be the harm To feel my spirit calm? So I say, I think I'd better leave right now Before I fall any deeper. I think I'd better leave right now; Feeling weaker and weaker. Somebody better show me how Before I fall any deeper. I think I'd better leave right now. I wouldn't know how to say How good it feels seeing you today I see you've got your smile back Like you say, you're right on track But you may never know why Once bitten, twice as shy. If I'm proud, perhaps I should explain: I couldn't bear to lose you again. So I say, I think I'd better leave right now Before I fall any deeper. I think I'd better leave right now; Feeling weaker and weaker. Somebody better show me how Before I fall any deeper. I think I'd better leave right now. Yes, I will. I think I'd better leave right now; I'm feeling weaker and weaker. Somebody better show me how Before I fall any deeper I think I'd better leave right now.
