[Verse 1: Javier Colin]
When I was a young boy, growing up in school
There was a lot of confusion, so many guides and rules
Faced with a dilemma, and being told what to do
That’s when I learned to stand for something
Does it come as a surprise
That I fell, fell for you?
For once, I could tell what I should do
[Chorus: Javier Color]
Lock this baby down, make it real, here's the papers, sign the deal
Find a home, buy a car, get a dog, and there we are
So, I'm gonna stand up and man up, no stuttering, and I won't stall
I'm gonna stand up and man up, the one time it's cool to fall
In love, oh, I'm falling in love
And please don't pick me up
[Verse 2: Adam Levine]
We decided to get married, a little bit too soon
People told us we were crazy, 'cause we were still in school
Too young to fall in love, but we followed through
And it wasn’t all for nothing
So they shouldn't be surprised that I fell
Fell for you, and for twice, I could tell what I should do
[Chorus: Javier Colon & with Adam Levine]
Lock this baby up, make it real, here's the papers, sign the deal
Find a home, buy a car, buy a dog, and there we are
So I'm gonna stand up and man up
Throw my doubts up against the wall
I'm gonna stand up and man up, the one time its cool to fall
In love, oh I'm in love
But please don't pick me up
[Bridge: Javier Colon]
You’d never leave me on the side of the road
Or down on the floor like your clothes
Driveway with the water hose anywhere the water flows that’s where i gotta go
Just like a penny on the street or dying when you see something sweet
The most beautiful picture on the wall, that's you
[Pre-Chorus: Javier Colon]
'Cause when I fell, I fell for you
And for the thrice time I could tell what I needed to do
[Chorus: Javier Colon with Adam Levine]
Lock this baby up, make it real here's the papers sign the deal
Find a home buy a car buy a dog and there we are
So I'm gonna stand up and man up, throw my doubts up against the wall
I'm gonna stand up and man up, the one time it's cool to fall
So I'm gonna stand up and man up, throw my doubts up against the wall
I'm gonna stand up and man up, the one time its cool to fall
In love, oh I'm falling in love
[Outro: Javier Colon]
But please don't pick me up
