I've never been in love before Now all at once it's you It's you forever more I've never been in love before I thought my heart was safe I thought I knew the score But this is wine It's all too strange and strong I'm full of foolish song And out my song must pour So please forgive this helpless haze I'm in I've really never been In love before But this is wine It's all too strange and strong I'm full of foolish song And out my song must pour So please forgive this helpless haze I'm in I've really never been In love before
