Lyrics

The Next Time I Fall

[Verse 1: Peter Cetera & Amy Grant]

Love, like a road that never ends

How it leads me back again

To heartache

I'll never understand

Darling, I put my heart up on a shelf

Til the moment was right, and I tell myself

[Chorus: Peter Cetera]

Next time I fall in love

I'll know better what to do

The next time I fall in love, oooh

The next time I fall in love

The next time I fall in love

It will be with you

[Verse 2: Amy Grant & Peter Cetera]

Now, as I look into your eyes

Well, I wonder if it's wise

To hold you like I've wanted to before

Tonight, I was thinking that you might

Be the one who breathes life in this heart of mine

[Chorus: Peter Cetera, Amy Grant, Both]

Next time I fall in love

I'll know better what to do

Next time I fall in love, oooh

The next time I fall in love

The next time I fall in love

It will be with you (Next time I fall in love)

[Bridge: Peter Cetera, Amy Grant, Both]

Next time I'm gonna follow through

And if it drives me crazy

I will know better why

The next time I try

[Chorus: Peter Cetera, Both]

Next time I fall in love

I'll know better what to do

Next time I fall in love, oooh

The next time I fall in love

The next time I fall in love

It will be with you

[Outro: Peter Cetera, Amy Grant, Both]

Next time I fall in love (Next time I fall in love)

Oh-woah-oh

Next time I fall in love, oooh

Next time I fall in love

It will be with you
