Hold your tongue, hold it tight
Or we'll be destined to fall
Like the sun did tonight
Leave it out 'cause it might
Take from both of us down
Before we get it right
Oh, I know just what you're thinking
But if we ever let it go
I see you're slipping away
Starting to fade, crumbling down
'Til we both hit the ground
You know if we'd ever say
We'll never crash and burn
'Cause love is a 4 letter word
Looking back, now I see
Saying just how it feels
Causes such misery
All I want is to keep
This moment alive
Between you and me
And I know just what you're thinking
But if we ever let it go
I see you're slipping away
Starting to fade, crumbling down
'Til we both hit the ground
You know if we'd ever say
We'll never crash and burn
'Cause love is a 4 letter word
I'm afraid I'm losing
All that we had now
A 4 letter word
It could all get ruined
If it's ever said out loud
Slipping away
Starting to fade, crumbling down
'Til we both hit the ground
You know if we'd ever say
We'll never crash and burn
'Cause love is a 4 letter word
I see you're slipping away
Starting to fade, crumbling down
'Til we both hit the ground
You know if we'd ever say
We'll never crash and burn
'Cause love is a 4 letter word
'Cause love is a 4 letter word
