I neither smoke nor drink nor swear
My habits are sublime
And at the risk of seeming square
Resist temptation all the time!
One weakness I possess
In all meekness I confess
My one bad habit is falling in love
And falling right out again!
My resolution - forget the past
Don't fall too fast
Make it last!
The dreams that mattered
Have all been shattered
They're long since scattered
Gone!
My grand illusion
Was all delusion
My revolution is on!
To break the habit of falling in love
With someone who doesn't care
I'm out to conquer So love beware
No more despair
In this love affair!
It's now or never
My last endeavour
To love for evermore!
So please treat me gently
For evidently
Your bad habit
Like my bad habit
Is falling in love
Just one little shove
And I'll start fallin' again, yeah!
I'll start fallin'again, oops!
Let's start fallin' again!
