About the song
Who ever pauses to look at the negatives before falling in love?
Lyrics
I met you on a summer day, the sun shown above
I thought you were the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen
I just couldn't wait to fall in love
In fact I didn't just fall, I leaped

Now I sit and drink the day's last cup of coffee
Then I go to bed and cry myself to sleep
I didn't know how much your love would cost me
I should have looked before I leaped

Our perfect love became a perfect nightmare
When I found out you were seeing other guys
I kept hoping that you still might care
But I couldn't handle living with your lies

Now I sit and drink the day's last cup of coffee
Then I go to bed and cry myself to sleep
I didn't know how much your love would cost me
I should have looked before I leaped
