Not Allowed to Fall

there are things in life that everybody knows but nobody tells you
there are times you try to be all you can be when no one’s around
when you’re far away and all i know is how you make me feel
when it’s not everyday that we get to talk for real
when their smiles say that everything and everyone is happening and having fun
but i…
i’m not allowed to fall for you
there are things in life that everybody wants to have but nobody takes home
there are places we hold sacred clothed and naked that we never reveal
when i’m far away and all i know is how you laugh
when it’s not everyday that i get to hear that
when the game we play for everything and everyone is working out and having fun
but i…
i’m not allowed to fall for you
days will come when you feel you’re the only one who’s ever felt this way
when i’m gone from home it may seem that love is just a price to pay
sometimes the things around us we forget until they’re gone
sometimes it hurts so bad that we can’t hide it from anyone
sometimes we need a song to help us remember
remember me
please remember me
'cause when i’m down and out there’s nothing left for me to do
and when familiar places just make me miss you
just know the truth may be that everything and everyone is hurting too and
nothing’s fun but i…
i’m not allowed to fall for you
i’m not allowed to fall for you
