Never Gonna Fall In Love Again
New Kids on the Block Lyrics

When I heard this crazy stuff about this other guy
When I first heard rumors about you seeing another guy,

I didn't believe it
I didn't think it could possibly be true.

Had to see it with my eyes
I needed to witness it for myself to know it was real.

When I saw you and him, you passed me by
When I saw you walking with him and you didn't even acknowledge me,

He's not your friend, he's the other guy
I realized that he wasn't just a friend, but the guy you cheated on me with.

Whether it's wrong or whether it's right
Regardless of if it's morally right or wrong,

Won't take me through the night
It won't keep me up at night.

Told me that you loved me so
You said that you loved me so deeply.

And you'd never let me go
You promised that you would never leave me.

You played the game you're not the same
You played games with my heart and you're not the same person I thought you were.

I never thought you'd ever change
I couldn't believe that you could change so much.

If it's got to be this way
If this is the way it's going to be,

I'm never gonna fall in love
I won't let myself fall in love again.

I'm never gonna fall 'cause I fell
I won't fall in love again because I've already been hurt too much.

Lovin' you for me was like hell
Loving you was a painful experience for me.

How could you play me
How could you toy with my emotions like that?

Like a champ, a tramp, a cramp
You played me like I was nothing to you.

Girl you did me worse than a food stamp
You treated me worse than a government-issued food subsidy.

You told me I could trust ya
You gave me your word that you could be trusted.

If I didn't I would crush ya
If I couldn't trust you, it would crush me.

But never thought that one day I'd bust you
I never imagined that I would catch you in the act.

Walking in the sand, hand in hand with
Walking on the beach, holding hands with someone else,

Another man, I know your game plan
Another man, I figured out your motives.

And now I understand
And now I see clearly.

Love so deep is like sleep
Love that is so emotional and profound can cloud your judgment.

And it will leave you blind
And it can leave you oblivious to the betrayal happening around you.

But I see how your living
But I see how you're living now.

So baby next time
So the next time this happens,

Watcha gonna do now that the tables are turned around
What will you do now that our roles are reversed?

I'm livin' swell and now you wanna be down
I'm doing well now, and you want to be a part of it again.

Step off 'cause baby I've learned
Back off, because I've learned my lesson.

If you're messin' with fire you're gonna get burned
If you play with fire, you'll get burned.

You still look dope but a dope I'm not
You still look attractive, but I won't let myself be fooled.

I can't get with you 'cause you're too hot
I won't pursue a relationship with you, even though you're attractive.
