I Can't Help Myself
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Can't help myself, falling in love
I can't help myself
Can't help myself, falling in love
Billy was a friend of mine
We used to walk down by the river
And he'd hold my hand
We were only ten or twelve years old
Didn't know about love
I found out that it could hurt you so
Can't help myself, falling in love
I can't help myself
Can't help myself, falling in love
Jimmie was the one in high school days
We used to drive around the city
Thinking we'd grown up
Must've been just about sweet sixteen
I found a brand new world
Brand new love that I had never seen
Can't help myself, falling in love
I can't help myself
Can't help myself, falling in love
No matter how hard I try
I just can't leave it alone
No use in wonderin' why
'Cause my heart has a mind of its own
Can't help myself, falling in love
I can't help myself
Can't help myself, falling in love
But I keep on falling
Can't help myself, falling in love
I can't help myself
I keep on falling
Can't help myself, falling in love
I keep right on falling
Can't help myself, falling in love
I can't help myself
Can't help myself, falling in love
Falling in love
