[Hook]
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
[Verse 1]
You said you’d never ever try to break my heart
You told a lie, you tore my love apart
You said you always wanted someone just like me
You let me down, baby you set me free
[Pre-Chorus]
Whether it’s wrong, or whether it’s right
Won’t take me through the night
You told me that you loved me so
And you’d never let me go
You played the game, you’re not the same
I never thought you’d ever change
But if it’s got to be this way
I’m never gonna fall in love
[Chorus]
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love
Break one!
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
When I heard this crazy stuff about this other guy
I didn’t believe it, had to see it with my eyes
When I saw you and him, you passed me by
He’s not your friend, he’s the other guy
[Pre-Chorus]
Whether it’s wrong, or whether it’s right
Won’t take me through the night
You told me that you loved me so
And you’d never let me go
You played the game, you’re not the same
I never thought you'd ever change
But if it’s got to be this way
I’m never gonna fall on love
[Chorus]
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love
Break two!
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
I’m never gonna fall, ‘cause I fell
Lovin’ you for me, was like hell
How could you play me like a champ
A tramp, a cramp?
Girl, you did me worse than a food stamp
You told me I could trust you
If I didn’t, I would crush you
Never thought that one day I’d bust you
Walkin’ in the sand, hand in hand with another man
I know your game plan and now I understand
Love is so deep, it’s like sleep
It will leave you blind
I see how you’re livin’
So baby, next time
What’cha gonna do now that the table’s are turned around?
I’m livin’ swell and now you wanna be down
Step off!
‘Cause baby I’ve learned
If you’re messin’ with fire then you’re gonna get burned
You still look dope but a dope I’m not
I can’t get with you ‘cause you’re too hot
[Pre-Chorus]
Whether it’s wrong, or whether it’s right
Won’t take me through the night
You told me that you loved me so
And you’d never let me go
You played the game you’re not the same
I never thought you’d ever change
But if it’s got to be this way
I’m never gonna fall in love
[Chorus]
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Never gonna fall
I’m never gonna fall
Never, never, never
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
[Verse 1]
You said you’d never ever try to break my heart

Never gonna fall in love
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
Never gonna fall in love again
