[Intro]
Oh-yeah
Oh-whoa

[Verse 1]
It's two months, seven days
And seven nights for the very first time we met
I felt scared, a first kiss
And I remember it just like it was yesterday, yeah
And boy, you know that I care for you (For you)
But we've gotta slow it down

[Chorus]
'Cause once you fall out of love
You don't wanna rush back into it
And once you feel pain, darlin'
You don't wanna rush back into it
Once again, once again, once again

(Yeah, yeah, again
Ooh, ooh)

[Verse 2]
You whisper things in my ear
You know that every single woman in the world loves to hear
(I love you)
Those three words, how I wish
You would be the man that I would spend my life with, yeah
And boy, as much as I care for you
We've gotta slow it down, slow it down
[Chorus]
'Cause once you fall out of love (Oh yeah, babe)
You don't wanna rush back into it
And once you feel this pain, darlin'
You don't wanna rush back into it
Once again, once again, once again

[Bridge]
I've been in love a long time ago, oh
And I've been through pain with this man from my past
And you say that you'll never hurt me, so you say
But could this be just how I feel
Or could this be a fantasy?
Please let me know, Lord
Oh, just once
You gotta let me know, know
One time, oh, one time
You gotta let me know (Once), oh no
I thought you'd know, oh

[Chorus]
'Cause once you fall out of love
You don't wanna rush back into it
And once you feel pain, darlin' (Pain, baby)
You don't wanna rush back into it
Once you fall out of love (Out of love, out of love)
You don't wanna rush back into it (Whoa, hey-yeah)
And once you feel pain, darlin' (Oh-hey, whoa)
You don't wanna rush back into it (Whoa-oh, hey-yeah)
[Outro]
Please let me know, Lord
Just once
I'll sit beside you, sit beside you once
'Cause I don't wanna be hurt once again
