I don't wanna fall in love with you 

But I get dizzy when you do the things you do 

Oh, it's the thought of you at the end of the day

It's the things I want, but I can't quite say

They're making me sick 

I've got vertigo, and I think I'm gonna slip

Walking a tightrope 

With both of my feet on the ground 

I'm at the top of the tip of my tongue 

I'm gonna say it out loud 

Reading the same lines 

Over and over 

Trying not to make a sound 

'Cause I don't wanna fall in love with you

But I get dizzy when you do the things you do

Oh, it's the thought of you at the end of the day

It's the things I want, but I can't quite say

They're making me sick

I've got vertigo, and I think I'm gonna slip

I can avoid this

There's nothing that I wouldn't do

Oh, I can spin plates on the tallest of stakes

Anything to keep my heart from you

Creasing the corner

Over and over

Watching you across the room

'Cause I don't wanna fall in love with you

But I get dizzy when you do the things you do

Oh, it's the thought of you at the end of the day

It's the things I want, but I can't quite say

They're making me sick

I've got vertigo, and I think I'm gonna slip

I don't wanna fall in love with you

I don't wanna fall in love with you 

I don't wanna fall

Walking a tightrope with both of my feet
