But I was falling in love.It’s a story as old
As Adam and Eve,
I was making love
But you were making believe.
You lied to me with kisses,
I tried to stop dreaming of,
You were only fooling me,
While I was falling in love.
It’s a story as old
As Adam and Eve,
I was making love
But you were making believe.
You lied to me with kisses,
I tried to stop dreaming of,
You were only fooling me,
While I was falling in love…
