Head Over Heels
©Greg Shupe 2005

1. Has it been twenty years since I let down my guard
I recall that the falling was easy but the landing was hard
But you slipped right past my defense
And made it look easy to do
When I tripped on my heart
And fell head over heels over you

2. Well I’ve never been one to say what I’m thinking about
Rather be thought a fool than to speak and take away all doubt
You looked right into my soul
And saw what I’ve hidden from view
So I tripped on my heart
And fell head over heels over you

Head over heels and I’m walking on clouds
Head over heels and I’m singing out loud
I feel like the gambler who just won a jackpot or two.
Head over heels and I’m acting the fool
Playing the rebel who hasn’t a clue
Since I tripped on my heart
And fell head over heels over you

3. Well you’d think at my age
I’d have a better hold on my heart
Or I’d make my escape the moment those old feelings start
But your smile took away every fear
And laughing was easy to do
So I tripped on my heart
And fell head over heels over you.
