If It Isn’t Love

Found this song by “New Edition” that talks about a man who left a girl because he was afraid of falling in love I guess? Only to find out that he is in love with her already although it seems to me that he’s struggling somewhat.

Have you or any of your friend ever experienced something like this in the past or at present? 

I don’t love her
I tried to tell myself
But you can see it in my eyes
So don’t deny I can’t fool no one else
The truth is in the tears I cry

Cause if it isn’t love
Why do I feel this way
Why does she stay on my mind
And if it isn’t love
Why does it hurt so bad
Make me feel so sad inside
If it isn’t love

I told her I’d never fall in love
But now I know better
How does it feel I can’t describe this feelin’
That came when I saw her last night
She got to me
I’ll let you know the reason I saw her with another guy

So if it isn’t love
Why do I feel this way
Why does she stay on my mind
And if it isn’t love
Why does it hurt so bad
Make me feel so sad inside

And if it isn’t love
Why do I feel this way
Why does she stay on my mind
And if it isn’t love
Why does it hurt so bad
Make me feel so sad inside
If it isn’t love

Maybe she’ll take me back
(Hey girl he’s begging)
I made a big mistake
(Won’t you forgive him girl)
Now I can feel it
(He’s never felt before)
I really love her
(You love her? What!?)

I took my heart
To shatter in a thousand pieces
Before I’d ever drop my pride
Losing love worrying about my image
Really helped me realize

If it isn’t love
Why do I feel this way
Why does she stay on my mind
And if it isn’t love
Why does it hurt so bad
Make me feel so sad inside
If it isn’t love
