Did You Ever?

Did you ever say you loved someone,
And know she didn't care?
Did you ever feel like crying,
And know you'll get nowhere?
Did you ever look into her heart,
And wish you were there?

Did you ever see her dancing,
When all the lights were low?
Did you ever whisper "God, I love her,"
And couldn't let her know?

If you ever fall in love my friend,
You'll find it doesn't pay.
Although it causes heartache,
It happens everyday.
You'll wonder where she is at night,
And if she's thinking of you.
One moment you'll be happy,
The next, you will be blue.
Love is fine, but it hurts too much,
The price you pay is high.

So I say when you fall in love,
You'll hurt before you're through.
Believe me my friend, I ought to know.
Because I fell in love with you.
