Here I go, Falling down, down, down, My mind is a blank, My head is spinning around and around, As I go deep into the funnel of love. It's such a crazy, crazy feeling, I get weak in the knees, My poor old head is a reelin', As I go deep into the funnel of love. I tried and I tried, to run and hide, I even tried to run away, You just can't run from the funnel of love, It's gonna get you someday. It's such a crazy, crazy feeling, I get weak in the knees, My poor old head is a reelin', As I go deep into the funnel of love. I tried and I tried, to run and hide, I even tried to run away, You just can't run from the funnel of love, It's gonna get you someday. Here I go, falling down, down, down, My mind is a blank, My head is spinning around and around, As I go deep into the funnel of love, Deep into the funnel of love, Deep into the funnel of love.
