Standing In Love by Deitrick Haddon Lyrics
I’m not falling in love no more
Next time I’ll be standing
I’m not losing to love no more
Next time I’ll be wining
And if you’re lost in love my friend
Go back to the beginning
No more falling, I’m standing in love
No more falling, I’m standing in love
Look at those lips
Looks at this hips
Look at them thighs
Them sexy eyes
She might be poison
Cause she kinda wild
You know you can’t trust a big but and a smile
And I just got out of my last situation
Let me enjoy my emancipation
Baby girl you’re fine but
I promised that next time
I’d take a little more time
And make sure her heart is mine
Oooh oooh
I ain’t falling inn live no more
I ain’t falling
I ain’t falling in love
I ain’t falling
I ain’t falling in love
I ain’t falling you better know
Next time I’ll be standing in love, standing in love
Ok standing talk
No matter what it is I won’t fall in
Gotta take some time before we go all in
I see so many people get to drowning
They be all drunk in love then they go to losing
Thing you feel it your soul
Until you feel it’s going cold
Now you don’t even control it
Oh
Feel the distance when you’re close
Now it’s coming to a close
Honey moon phase over
I’m not falling in love no more
Next time I’ll be standing
I’m not losing to love no more
Next time I’ll be wining
And if you’re lost in love my friend
Go back to the beginning
No more falling, I’m standing in love
No more falling, I’m standing in love
No more falling
Not more falling in love
Next time I’ll be standing in love
Standing in love
