  • Before I fall too fast
    Kiss me quick, but make it last
    So I can see how badly this will hurt me when you say goodbye
    Keep it sweet, keep it slow
    Let the future pass and don't let go
    But tonight, I could fall too soon under this beautiful moonlight

    But you're so hypnotizing
    You've got me laughin' while I sing
    You've got me smilin' in my sleep
    And I can see this unraveling
    Your love is where I'm fallin'
    But please don't catch me

    See, this heart won't settle down
    Like a child running, scared from a clown
    I'm terrified of what you do
    My stomach screams just when I look at you
    Run far away, so I can breathe
    Even though you're far from suffocating me
    I can't set my hopes too high
    'Cause every "hello" ends with a "goodbye"

    But you're so hypnotizing
    You've got me laughin' while I sing
    You've got me smiling in my sleep
    And I can see this unraveling
    Your love is where I'm fallin'
    But please don't catch me

    So now you see why I'm scared
    I can't open up my heart without a care
    But here I go, it's what I feel
    And for the first time in my life, I know it's real

    But you're so hypnotizing
    You've got me laughin' while I sing
    You've got me smilin' in my sleep
    And I can see this unraveling
    Your love is where I'm falling
    So please don't catch me
    If this is love, please don't break me
    I'm giving up, so just catch me Writer/s: Demitria Lovato

  • Joel from Vallejo, CaI think the song is more about a girl in love with a boy but she is unsure if she wants a relationship with him because she has been hurt in the past. This is one of my favorite Demi songs. I still get close to tears whenever I hear this and I am away from my sweetheart.
  • Cassie from Springfield, OrIs this song about like, not wanting to fall in love with someone because you don't want your heart broken? I'm kinda curious.
