I have to catch my breath
It scares me half to death
That he might love me
I've always been afraid
When someone felt that way
I'd start to fade

I told him not to stay
And yet it's nice to hear him say
Good morning

And if I send him home
We'd just be on the phone
Oh, yeah

I've always played to win
My game has always been
Be good at making love, but don't begin it
To fall is suicide
And I've got to keep my pride
I know it's safe to hide
But wait a minute

'Cause when we're making love (when we're making love)
I sometimes even say the words (I sometimes say) I love you
It scares me half to death
I have to catch my breath
Catch my breath

'Cause when we're making love (when we're making love)
I sometimes even say the words (I sometimes say) I love you
It scares me half to death
I have to catch my breath
Catch my breath

I've always been afraid
When someone's felt that way
I have to catch my breath

And if I send him home
We'd just be on the phone
I have to catch my breath

To fall is suicide
And I've got to keep my pride
It scares me half to death

I've always been afraid
When someone's felt that way
I have to catch my breath

And if I send him home
We'd just be on the phone
I have to catch my breath
