Head Over Heels

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 intention
You keep your distance
With a system of touch
And gentle persuasion
I'm lost in admiration
'Cause I need you this much
You're wasting my time
You're just wasting time

Something happens, and I'm head over heels
I never find out 'til I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels
Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart
Don't, don't throw it away

I made a fire, and watching it burn
I thought of your future
With one foot in the past now
Just how long can this last
Have you no ambition
My mother and my brothers
Used to breathing clean air
And dreaming of my doctor
It's hard to be a man
When there's a gun in your hand
I feel sorrow

Something happens, and I'm head over heels
I never find out 'til I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels
Ah, don't take my heart, don't break my heart
Don't, don't throw it away
