When we met, love was like a runaway train
Our lives would never be the same after that
Lost hearts searchin' for a place to go
Without consideration, there's no turning back
We were having fun together
We felt the promise of forever
And even though we both knew better
We went straight ahead

Just the thought of bein' in love
Just the chance is good enough
To make us give in and give our hearts up
To the dream
I know it didn't work out like we planned
Baby, I've come to understand
We got caught up in the thought of bein' in love

We laughed, we laughed until the day we cried
But even when you know you tried, it still hurts
Long nights wide awake and wondering why
Praying somehow you and I could make it work
And even with your eyes wide open
And even when your heart's been broken
Still, we're gonna keep on hopin'
Love finds us someday

Just the thought of bein' in love
Just the chance is good enough
To make us give in and give our hearts up
To the dream
I know it didn't work out like we planned
Baby, I've come to understand
We got caught up in the thought of bein' in love

Just the thought of bein' in love
Just the chance is good enough
To make us give in and give our hearts up
To the dream
And though it didn't work out like we planned
Because of you, I'm a better man
We just got caught up in the thought of bein' in love
We just got caught up in the thought of bein' in love
In love
