Lyrics If You Fall - Steve Earle

I saw you lookin' at that girl like that
Yeah, I saw her too, boy,
I know right where you're at
But you better be careful
'cause she ain't the kind
You're gonna forget
How much you wanna bet?

If you fall in love
Then nothin's gonna be the same
You walk around callin' out her name
You throw your heart down like a glove
Push comes to shove
You only end up lonely and blue
Whenever she's away from you
If you fall in love

You gotta hear me talkin' to ya
'cause I'm your best friend
And I'd hate to see you goin'
Where I've already been
'Cause I've been in love before
And I won't ever be the same again
You better listen to me Jim

If you fall in love
Then nothin's gonna be the same
You walk around callin' out her name
You throw your heart down like a glove
Push comes to shove
You only end up lonely and blue
Whenever she's away from you
If you fall in love

There she is again
She sure looks fine
And boy, I know you're walkin' on a very thin line
So I guess it's up to me
'cause your heart's not as strong as mine
Well, just this one time

If you fall in love
Then nothin's gonna be the same
You walk around callin' out her name
You throw your heart down like a glove
Push comes to shove
You only end up lonely and blue
Whenever she's away from you
If you fall in love

If you fall in love
If you fall in love
