[Verse 1]
I wanted to be with you alone
And talk about the weather
But traditions I can trace against the child in your face
Won't escape my attention
You keep your distance with a system of touch
Gentle persuasion
I'm lost in admiration, do I need you this much?
You're wasting my time
You're just, just, just wasting time

[Chorus]
Something happens and I'm head over heels, oh
I never find out till I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels, oh
Don't take my heart, don't break my heart
Don't, don't, don't throw it away

[Verse 2]
I made a fire, I'm watching it burn
Thought of your future
With one foot in the past, just how long will it last?
No, have you no ambition?
My mother and my brothers used to breathe in clean air
Dreaming I'm a doctor
It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand
Oh, I feel
[Chorus]
Something happens and I'm head over heels, oh
I never find out till I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels, oh
Don't take my heart, don't break my heart
Don't, don't, don't throw it away
