She was just a girl who knew the way
   I was so naive
   Everything she ever said to me
   I wanted to believe
   I was close to too far gone
   When she sat down and
   Told me tenderly
  
   Don't fall in love with me
   I'll only break your heart
   For us forever is just tomorrow
   Don't fall in love with me
   Don't let the fire start
   If you should fall
   I'm afraid I'll follow you
  
   Now I'm on the other side of love
   Lookin' right at you
   There you are so young and sure
   Your life has room enough for two
   So it's up to me to try and say
   Words that didn't stop me yesterday
  
   Don't fall in love with me
   I'll only break your heart
   For us forever is just tomorrow
   Don't fall in love with me
   Don't let the fire start
   If you should fall
   I'm afraid I'll follow you
