In a Week

Could you ever fall in love in a week?
And move so fast you're frozen
In a calm covered commotion
Where time and space don't speak
Hmm-mm

It kills you in a silent sweep
And it isn't until it's over that you begin to notice
The force of a short-lived heat
Hmm, still burns in me
Hmm-mm

And all my friends, they hate to see me hollow
One by one they look at me and say

It was chance, it wasn't fate
Turn your head, walk away
Move on, it's over
Drink down, get sober
You'll be fine, he'll be okay
Just gotta hurt through the pain
One heartache closer 'til heartbreak's over

So call it serendipity
That the both of us were chosen for this beautiful misfortune
When you laid your eyes on me
Hmm, it cut so deep
Hmm-mm

'Cause even though I knew we'd never make it
Wish I could know why we ever met at all

Guess it was chance, it wasn't fate
Turn your head, walk away
Move on, it's over
Drink down, get sober
You'll be fine, he'll be okay
Just gotta hurt through the pain
One heartache closer 'til heartbreak's over, over

So it wasn't meant to be
Yeah, the stars they were just teasing
When they sent your heart to me
I won't forget the feeling
Of you and me
