  • Mmm-mmm, mmm

    I'm here, just like I said
    Though it's breaking every rule I've ever made
    My racing heart is just the same
    Why make it strong to break it once again?
    And I'd love to say I do
    Give everything to you
    But I could never now be true

    So I say
    I think I better leave right now
    Before I fall any deeper
    I think I better leave right now
    Feeling weaker and weaker
    Somebody better show me how
    Before I fall any deeper
    I think I better leave right now

    I'm here, so please explain
    Why you're opening up a healing wound again
    I'm a little more careful
    Perhaps it shows
    But if I lose the highs
    At least I'm spared the lows

    And I would tremble in your arms
    What could be the harm?
    To feel my spirit calm

    So I say
    I think I better leave right now
    Before I fall any deeper
    I think I better leave right now
    Feeling weaker and weaker
    Somebody better show me how
    Before I fall any deeper
    I think I better leave right now

    I wouldn't know how to say
    How good it feels seeing you today
    I see you've got your smile back
    Like you say, you're right on track
    But you may never know why
    Once bitten, twice as shy
    If I'm proud, perhaps I should explain
    I couldn't bear to lose you again

    Mmm-hmm, mmm-mmm
    Mmm-mmm-mmm

    Think I better leave right now
    Before I fall any deeper
    I think I better leave right now
    I'm feeling weaker and weaker
    Somebody better show me how
    Before I fall any deeper
    I think I better leave right now

    Yes, I will
    I think I better leave right now
    I'm feeling weaker and weaker
    Somebody better show me how
    Before I fall any deeper
