WHEN I FALL IN LOVE NAT KING COLE When I fall in love it will be forever Or I'll never fall in love In a restless world like this is Love is ended before it's begun And too many moonlight kisses Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun When I give my heart it will be completely Or I'll never give my heart And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too Is when I fall in love with you. And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too Is when I fall in love with you WHEN WE FELL OUT OF LOVE Tears fall from my eyes; you said we were over Now you’re walking out on me Never dreamed you didn’t love me You were always right there by my side But you had a secret lover You’re a rat it cannot be denied I can’t sleep at night for my heart is aching Now you’ve chosen her not me I am hurting oh so bad I don’t know what to do Why did I fall in love with you? I am hurting oh so bad I don’t know what to do Why did I fall in love with you? Contest - Write me a lyric Sponsored by John Hamilton 09~25~16

I dig it. Fit my ever bitter mood perfectly. Why does anyone ever fall in love? That's the question. Excellent poem
