Passage
I Just Fall In Love Again
Dreamin′, i must be dreamin'
Or am i really lyin′ here with you
Baby, you take me in your arms
And though i'm wide awake
(*) and, oh, i just fall in love again
Just one touch and then it happens every time
And there i go i just fall in love again, and when i do
Can′t help myself, i fall in love with you
Magic, it must be magic
The way i hold you and the night just seems to fly
Easy, for you to take me to a star
Heaven is that moment when i look into your eyes
Repeat twice (*)
Can′t help myself, i fall in love with you
