Laura's Lair: What do you get when you fall in love?

3.22.2021

What do you get when you fall in love?

A guy with a pin to burst your bubble

That's what you get for all your trouble

I'll never fall in love again

What do you get when you kiss a guy?

You get enough germs to catch pneumonia

After you do, he'll never phone ya

I'll never fall in love again

Don't you know that I'll never fall in love again

Don't tell me what's it all about

'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out

Out of those chains, those chains that bind you

That is why I'm here to remind you

What do you get when you fall in love?

You only get a life of pain and sorrow

So for at least until tomorrow

I'll never fall in love again

No, no, I'll never fall in love again

~~I'll Never Fall In Love Again, as sung by Dionne Warwick

I've always loved this Bacharach song, especially Dionne Warwick's rendition. A falling in love gone awry but in a sweet lilting style. And note, she sings "so for at least until tomorrow, I'll never fall in love again." I think this is actually more of a celebrating being a girl song.
