Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Something moves within my heart
And it thrills me to my soul
And tell me that love is gonna let me down
I can't believe that baby
Love is gonna let me down
I see the morning sun
I know everything is alright
And tell me that love is gonna let me down
I can't believe what you're saying to me baby
Love is gonna let me down
I can see the morning sun
And knowing that everything, everything is alright
I can see you rushing through that door
And tell me that love is gonna let me down
Love is gonna let me down
Love is gonna walk out on me

Every time I see your face
Whenever I lay my eyes upon you
Something moves within my heart
A feeling deep within me arises
And it thrills me to my soul
This feeling is exhilarating to my core
And tell me that love is gonna let me down
However, I fear that love may disappoint me
I can't believe that baby
I find it hard to accept
Love is gonna let me down
That love may let me down
I see the morning sun
When I witness the sunrise
I know everything is alright
I have a sense that everything is okay
I could see you rushing to my door
I anticipate seeing you hurry towards me
And tell me that love is gonna let me down
But if you come and inform me that love will disappoint me
I can't believe what you're saying to me baby
I simply cannot fathom your words, my love
Love is gonna let me down
That love may let me down
I can see the morning sun
Despite this fear
And knowing that everything, everything is alright
I am aware that everything is indeed fine
I can see you rushing through that door
And I can picture you bursting through my door
And tell me that love is gonna let me down
Only to repeat that love may disappoint me
Love is gonna let me down
That love may let me down
Love is gonna walk out on me
Ultimately, I fear love will abandon me
