No use pretending things can still be right There's really nothing more to say I'll get along without your kiss tonight Just close the door and walk away Never gonna fall in love again I don't want to start with someone new ‘Cause I couldn't bear to see it end Just like me and you No, I never want to feel the pain Of remembering how it used to be Never gonna fall in love again Just like you and me At first we thought that love was here to stay The summer made it seem so right But like the sun we watched it fade away From morning into lonely night
