Struggling with Again? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
I heard from a friend today And she said you were in town Suddenly the memories came back to me in my mind "How can I be strong?" I've asked myself Time and time I've said That I'll never fall in love with you again A wounded heart you gave My soul you took away Good intentions you had many I know you did I've come from a place that hurts And God knows how I've cried And I never want to return Never fall again Making love to you Oh, it felt so good and Ooh, so right "How can I be strong?" I've asked myself Time and time I've said That I'll never fall in love with you again So here we are alone again Didn't think it'd come to this And to know it all began With just a little kiss I've come too close to happiness To have it swept away Don't think I can take the pain Never fall again Kinda late in the game but my heart is in Your hands Don't you stand there and then Tell me you love me then leave again 'Cause I'm falling in love with You again Hold me Hold me Don't ever let me go Say it just one time Say you love me God knows I do love you Again
