I'm done being vague about falling in love
When I sing the word "you"
I want em to know who I'm talking to
She broke my heart but it wasn't her fault
Cause you don't get to choose who loves you
I hit every green light driving from the city back to New Jersey
I guess they didn't want me to stay
Living in close proximity makes you want to reach out to former flames
But I'll be across the Hudson keepin away
Cause I fell in love with her once and I would do it again
I fell in love with her once and I would do it again
I'm done wasting away in that apartment
With half a month's rent to my name
I gave up my youth for a careless pursuit
Now I'm wondering if my motives have changed
Night after night I spin through the suburbs
The parkway knows my name
I'm talking to strangers and pretending you don't live
A couple of miles away
Cause I fell in love with her once and I would do it again
I fell in love with her once and I would do it again
I fell in love with her once and I would do it again
I fell in love with her once and I would do it again
Night after night I keep having the same dream
She sits next to me on the train
Takes my hand between her fingers stares at the wall and explains
You don't get to choose who loves you
You don't get to choose who loves you
There's no one in the city who could ever stand above you
You don't get to choose who loves you
Cause I fell in love with her once and I would do it again
I fell in love with her once and I would do it again
I fell in love with her once and I would do it again
I fell in love with her once and I would do it again
