I was trapped in a castle tower
Locked up in chains
I waited for my prince to save me
But he never came.

I woke up with my heart pounding
Convinced that I was cursed
I picked up a romance novel
And read the last page first.

Oh, oh, woe is me.

I want to fall in love so hard it hurts
I want the kind of love that moves the earth
I want more than I can take
'Til my poor heart starts to ache
I want to fall in love so hard it hurts.

I took a ride with a guy from Tupelo
In his Chevrolet
He said baby we're moving way too fast
And slammed on the brakes.

We got out and he lit a cigarette
We didn't say too much
He packed up his emotional baggage
And left me in the dust
Oh, oh, woe is me.

I want to fall in love so hard it hurts
I want the kind of love that moves the earth
I want more than I can take
'Til my poor heart starts to ache
I want to fall in love so hard it hurts...
