In a Week

Could you ever fall in love in a week? And move so fast you're frozen In a calm covered commotion Where time and space don't speak Hmm-mm It kills you in a silent sweep And it isn't until it's over that you begin to notice The force of a short-lived heat Hmm, still burns in me Hmm-mm And all my friends, they hate to see me hollow One by one they look at me and say It was chance, it wasn't fate Turn your head, walk away Move on, it's over Drink down, get sober You'll be fine, he'll be okay Just gotta hurt through the pain One heartache closer 'til heartbreak's over So call it serendipity That the both of us were chosen for this beautiful misfortune When you laid your eyes on me Hmm, it cut so deep Hmm-mm 'Cause even though I knew we'd never make it Wish I could know why we ever met at all Guess it was chance, it wasn't fate Turn your head, walk away Move on, it's over Drink down, get sober You'll be fine, he'll be okay Just gotta hurt through the pain One heartache closer 'til heartbreak's over, over So it wasn't meant to be Yeah, the stars they were just teasing When they sent your heart to me I won't forget the feeling Of you and me
