I DON'T WANT TO FALL IN LOVE

I don’t want to fall in love with you

But there is something about you so magical

Like the breath in me, you I can't do without

Beautiful thoughts about you I can't let out

Last night when I saw you in a picture smiling

It felt like the sun was shining in my heart

I took a long stare at you and the world paused before you

I tried so hard but can’t figure how God made you so beautiful

A friend once told me that pictures can be deceptive

But the way you smile is so real, it made my heart skips

You are as pure as the morning stream

So I made a wish in my heart for you to forever keep

I once promised my heart not to fall in love again

But since I met you, life is no longer the same

When I told my heart I am in love with you, he smiled and said me too

Now we are both fond of you, and there is nothing anyone can do

I don't want to fall in love with you

So I close my eyes and prayed for a miracle

I smiled for God told me you are my dream come true

You are now finally in my heart to forever stay

For I wouldn't stop thinking about you every single day
