Please let me get to know you
Before you break my heart
I want to kiss and hold you
Before you break my heart
Feelings like I lost you have occurred to me
Baby, can it be (baby, can it be) that you no longer need my loving?
It's time for us to express farewell
It's been more than swell (it's been more than swell)
I can't believe it's ending
All the redwoods have stopped shining (shining)
Yes, they've lost their glow, the magic that was all around us
(Where did it go?) Where did it go?
Baby, don't you know (I love you so)?
They told me that this rainbow had no pot of gold
But fools like me (fools like me) will never realize (will never realize)
That people go and people come into our lives
(But tomorrow brings another rain, oh) oh
Please let me get to know you (let me get to know you)
Before you break my heart
I want to kiss and hold you (oh no)
Before you break my heart
Searching for that feeling, I held you close to me
But obviously your flame for me was over now
Guess I'll have to give you back your promises
So good, they were (so good, they were)
Ooh, baby, it's gonna hurt
Memories I'll always cherish (cherish)
Since we've had great times and my mind's still hanging on it, baby
Are they really gone? (Baby, what went wrong?)
Oh, it seemed so strong
They told me that this rainbow had no pot of gold (ooh)
But fools like me (fools like me) will never, never realize (will never realize)
People go and people come into our lives (but tomorrow brings another rain)
(Oh) oh, oh, oh
Please let me get to know you (let me get to know you)
Before you break my heart
I want to kiss and hold you (oh no)
Before you break my heart
I wanna know you, hm, kiss and hold you
(Gotta give up) gotta give up on you
Before you break my heart (before you break my heart)
'Cause, I need a love that's true
(Gotta give up) it's in your eyes
My heart can tell (before you break my heart)
It's time for us to say farewell
(Gotta give up) goodbye, baby
(Before you break, before you break my heart)
(Ooh) gotta give up
Before you break, before you break my heart
Gotta give up
Before you break, before you break my heart
Gotta give up
Before you break, before you break my heart
Gotta give up
Before you break, before you break my heart
Gotta give up
Before you break, before you break my heart
Gotta give up
Before you break, before you break my heart
Gotta give up
Before you break, before you break my heart
