[Verse 1]
For every academic
There's a dozen coffee shops
And actors sip on latte
I'll conceal the [?] I've got
I think I fell in love with you
It wasn't hard to do
But if you don't love me back
I'll fall straight through
Well I went for a kiss and I received a shoulder cold
Jack told me I'm copper so I shouldn't mine for gold
But I am underground and for whatever reason be
I'm not coming up 'til you're in love with me
[Chorus:]
If you follow your heart
You're bound to get hurt
Because love is blind
It is rarely kind
And when it is, it is usually short..
Lived
[Verse 2]
Well, I tried to restrain myself but took a silly step
I had planned to take it slowly
But in retrospect, I leaped
Still if you wanna walk with me
Come on and hold my hand
And hold my gaze until your pupils both expand
Now I've laid it on the table
Hit the ball into your court
And I'd hate something so trivial
To destroy our whole [?] fort
So if you're feeling lonely
Or would like some company
I will drop my plans
And claim that I was free
[Chorus:]
If you follow your heart
You're bound to get hurt
Because love is blind
It is rarely kind
And when it is, it is usually short..
