It starts with just a little glance now 
Right away you're thinkin' 'bout romance now 
You know you ought to take it slower 
But you just can't wait to get to know her 
 
A brand new love affair is such a beautiful thing 
But if you're not careful think about the pain it can bring 
 
It makes you feel so bad 
It makes your heart feel sad 
It makes your days go wrong 
It makes your nights so long 
 
You've got to keep in mind love is here today 
And it's gone tomorrow 
It's here and gone so fast 
 
Right now you think that she's perfection 
This time is really an exception 
Well you know I hate to be a downer 
But I'm the guy she left before you found her 
 
Well I'm not saying you won't have a good love with her 
But I keep on remembering things like they were 
 
She made me feel so bad 
She made my heart feel sad 
She made my days go wrong 
And made my nights so long 
 
You've got to keep in mind love is here today 
And it's gone tomorrow 
It's here and gone so fast 
 
Keep in mind love is here today 
And it's gone tomorrow 
It's here and gone so fast 
 
Love is here today 
And it's gone tomorrow 
It's here and gone so fast
