(Richard Marx/Gary Burr)



Sometimes I wonder why I end up alone

Why I always choose to cut and run

I want someone to love so tell me why

I find a million ways to say goodbye



Hope springs eternal and it says to me

Don't waste another chance so carelessly

I've got lessons learned if nothing else

So I'll make a solemn promise to myself that



If I fall in love tonight

It's gonna be the start of forever

When I face the end, I'll stand and fight

With all my heart

With all my might

If I fall in love tonight



I don't need a drop of sympathy

I chartered the course of my own destiny

I know the right one might have passed me by

But I'd be a bigger fool if I don't try and



If I fall in love tonight

It's gonna be the start of forever

When I face the end, I'll stand and fight

With all my heart

With all my might

If I fall in love tonight



Next time it's gonna be different

I won't close my eyes when love shines down on me



If I fall in love tonight

It's gonna be the start of forever

When I face the end, I'll stand and fight

With all my heart

With all my might

If I fall in love tonight
