So you’re in love, that’s so good for you
Live it up girl ’cause it never lasts too long
It’s heaven for now, but not for long
It’s gonna hurt you
It’s gonna make you feel so bad

Once I could love, I could trust, I could not doubt
But that was just about the worst thing that I could do
It was just about the worst thing that I could do

Maybe not now, but it won’t take long
Before it’s gonna hurt you
And truly do you some harm

Once I was open, could hope, I had no doubt
But that was the worst thing that I could do
It was just about the worst thing that I could do

Once I came close to that most elusive fire
Burning with hopeless love and desire
But it was just about the worst thing that I could do
It was just about the worst thing I could do

En el pasado que estuve ciega como tu
Atrapada y perdida, como tu
Embelesada y suspendida en mi jaula de plata
Esos recuerdos me accompanaran toda la vida

(in the past I was blind as you,
Trapped and lost like you with no escape
Suspended in my silver cage
These memories will remain with you forever.)
