From the recording Male Downtempo II
Lyrics
VERSE
I could feel her searching eyes; it was something I just knew
That it was love was no surprise; she’s wantin’ me to hold onto
But if I tried to share my heart, it would be a shallow love
I don’t know if love should start, though it’s what I’m dreamin’ of
PRE-CHORUS
So I said a little prayer, then looked into her eyes
And realized I was already there…
CHORUS
I didn’t mean to fall in love; I didn’t mean to need her touch
Or to want to hold the girl who is wanting me so much
I didn’t mean to feel this free as she’s right here next to me
I didn’t mean, no, I didn’t mean to fall in love
SOLO/VERSE
We had agreed to take it slow; we’d both been down this path
There were lots of things to know; we already knew how to do the math
But sometimes the mind is clear that the heart has taken control
Leaving no room at all for fear in the very depths of my soul
Repeat CHORUS/TAG
I didn’t mean, no, I didn’t mean to fall in love
