falling in love

Sam Cooke

I'm falling in love with someone
who's not falling in love with me
How can I escape this future
that holds nothing for me
I'm giving my all to someone
Who's not giving her own to me
Is she only knew what she's doing to me
She would set my poor heart free
I knew there've been many before me
Who've had an one-sided love
But goodness knows a poor boy like me
Needs some help from above
Lord, I'm falling in love with someone
who's not falling in love with me
If she'd only cared the very least
I'd be as happy as a boy can be
Lord, I'd be as happy as a boy can be
