The day I first met you 
You told me you'd never fall in love 
But now that I get you 
I know fear is what it really was 

 Now here we are 
So close yet so far 
How did I pass the test 
When will you realise 
Baby, I'm not like the rest 

 Don't wanna break your heart 
Wanna give your heart a break 
I know you're scared it's wrong 
Like you might make a mistake 
There's just one life to live 
And there's no time to wait, to waste 
So let me give your heart a break, 
Give your heart a break 
Let me give your heart a break, 
Your heart a break 

 On Sunday you went home alone 
There were tears in your eyes 
I called your cell phone, my love 
But you did not reply 
 The world is ours if you want it 
We can take it if you just take my hand 
There's no turning back now 
Baby, try and understand 

Don't wanna break your heart 
Wanna give your heart a break 
I know you're scared it's wrong 
Like you might make a mistake 
There's just one life to live 
And there's no time to wait, to waste 
So let me give your heart a break, 
Give your heart a break 
Let me give your heart a break, 
Your heart a break 

 There's just so much you can take 
Give your heart a break 
Let me give your heart a break, 
Your heart a break 
 When your lips are on my lips 
And our hearts beat as one 
But you slip out of my fingertips 
Every time [bad word] 

Don't wanna break your heart 
Wanna give your heart a break 
I know you're scared it's wrong 
Like you might make a mistake 
There's just one life to live 
And there's no time to wait, to waste 
So let me give your heart a break 

 ‘Cause you've been hurt before 
I can see it in your eyes 
You try to smile it away, 
Some things you can't disguise 
Don't wanna break your heart 
Baby, I can ease the ache, the ache 
So let me give your heart a break, 
Give your heart a break 
Let me give your heart a break, 
Your heart a break 

 There's just so much you can take 
Give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, 
Your heart a break 

 The day I first met you 
You told me you'd never fall in love
