2025 Competition Lyrics Entry:

Please Don’t Say You Love Me by Rick Poplawski

Lyrics

That day we met
It just seemed right
As it was meant to be
And when you whispered
In my ear
It felt like I could see

You made me feel so special
When you held me in your arms
Our bodies pressing closely
As I fell for all your charms

And when you said you loved me
I never felt so good
I fell for you so badly
Like I never really should

I didn’t see when all the other guys
Were taking up your time
Temptation didn’t matter
When you said that you were mine

You made me feel so special
When you held me in your arms
Our bodies pressing closely
As I fell for all your charms

I fell for all your charms

You still told me that you loved me
When the rumours went around
But I let them float right by me
They didn’t make a sound

Even when I saw you watching
As he strolled across the floor
It only made me understand
How much I want you more

You made me feel so special
When you held me in your arms
Our bodies pressing closely
As I fell for all your charms

Yeah, I fall for all those charms..

And even though wer’e still together
I know I have to share you too

But please,

Don’t tell me that you love me
Because I know it isn’t true

Yeah, when you said you loved me
I never felt so good
I fell for you so badly
Like I never really should

You made me feel so special
When you held me in your arms
Our bodies pressing closely
As I fell for all your charms

I fell for all those charms..

I fell for all those charms..

I’m still falling..

But please don’t say you love me…
