  • Don't put your cover up
    You know it's bad for your health
    And when the going's tough
    You're way too hard on yourself
    I wish you'd open up
    And I'd lend a little to help
    Before you dive off the deep end

    Will you hold me like you want me?
    But you don't give me nothin' else
    Feel this happening
    But you'll feel absent
    Can you tell me what it is?

    And she said this
    "Haven't you ever been in love before?
    You heard 'em say, it takes the pain away
    And it's a feeling that you can't ignore
    But it's more like a knife to me than a high to me
    And my heart can't fall apart anymore
    If you knew what I know, you'd be terrified
    Haven't you ever been in love before?"

    If we don't work it out
    That's something I could accept
    But I feel you're ruling out
    A love that ain't happened yet
    And maybe I'm a fool
    But I just can't live with regret
    I'd rather dive off the deep end

    Will you hold me like you want me?
    But you don't give me nothin' else
    Feel this happening
    But you'll feel absent
    Can you tell me what it is?

    And she said this
    "Haven't you ever been in love before?
    You heard 'em say, it takes the pain away
    And it's a feeling that you can't ignore
    But it's more like a knife to me than a high to me
    And my heart can't fall apart anymore
    If you knew what I know, you'd be terrified
    Haven't you ever been in love before?"

    Well, we could be falling
    Falling
    There's nothing I want more than all that you got
    'Cause I'm falling

    And she said this
    "Haven't you ever been in love before?
    You heard 'em say, it takes the pain away
    And it's a feeling that you can't ignore
    But it's more like a knife to me than a high to me
    And my heart can't fall apart anymore
    If you knew what I know, you'd be terrified
    Haven't you ever been in love before?" Writer/s: Edward Holloway, Lewis Capaldi, Nicholas Atkinson
