Lyrics
Movie version
Love will find a way! (Love will find a way!)
Don't say you love me
You don't even know me
If you really want me
Then give me some time
Don't go there baby
Not before I'm ready
Don't say your heart's in a hurry
It's not like we're gonna get married!
Give me, give me, some time!
Full version
Got introduced to you by a friend
You were cute and all that
Baby you set the trend
Yes you did!
The next thing I know
We're down at the cinema
We're sitting there
You said you love me, what's that about?
You're moving too fast, don't understand you!
I'm not ready yet, baby I can't pretend
No I can't
Best I can do is tell you to talk to me
It's possible eventual love will find a way!
Don't say you love me
You don't even know me
If you really want me
Then give me some time
Don't go there baby
Not before I'm ready
Don't say your heart's in a hurry
It's not like we're gonna get married!
Give me, give me, some time!
Here's how to play, here's how I stand!
Here what's to prove to get any further then where it's been
I'll make it clear, not gonna tell you twice
Take it slow, quit pushing me, you're pushing me away! (Pushing me away!)
Don't say you love me
You don't even know me
If you really want me
Then give me some time (Give me some time!)
Don't go there baby
Not before I'm ready
Don't say your heart's in a hurry
It's not like we're gonna get married!
Give me, give me, some time!
(Oooooooooooh)
(Na na na na, na na na, na na na na, na na na)
(Oooooooooooh)
(Na na na na, na na na, na na na na, na na na!)
Don't say you love me
You don't even know me baby
Baby don't say you love me (Don't say you love me)
(You don't even know me) Baby, baby
(If you really want me)
(Then give me some time) Give me some time!
Don't say you love me
You don't even know me!
If you really want me
Then give me some time (Won't you give me some time?)
Don't go there baby
Not before I'm ready!
Don't say your heart's in a hurry! (It's no hurry!)
It's not like we're gonna get married
Give me, give me, some time
(Baby, don't!)
Don't say you love me
You don't even know me!
If you really want me
Then give me some time (Won't you give me some time?)
Don't go there baby
Not before I'm ready!
Don't say your heart's in a hurry
It's not like we're gonna get married!
Give me, give me, some time!
Don't say you love me
You don't even know me!
If you really want me
Then give me some time
Don't go there baby
Not before I'm ready
Alternate version
Both the single and soundtrack version of "Don't Say You Love Me" have altered lyrics in the first verse, different from the version included on M2M's debut album Shades of Purple. The lyric "You started kissing me" is changed to "You said you loved me".
Music video
The music video for this song was used to promote the movie. The video takes place at a drive-in theater where the movie is being shown. Like the song, there are two different versions of this video. In the non-Pokémon version, the scenes from the movie are replaced by additional footage of M2M and the non-Pokémon version of the lyrics is used. The Pokémon version of the video premiered during primetime on The WB on October 24, 1999 during an episode of the show 7th Heaven, and was later included as a bonus feature on the first movie's initial DVD release. Like some of the other promo material used to promote the movie's US release, one of the clips used (the scene of Ash and the non-clone Pokémon walking out of the smoke) was from the original Japanese theatrical release, rather than the remastered Kanzenban version.
Remixes and other versions
There are five remixes of the song made, available on CD and vinyl:
- Johnny Vicious Club Mix
- Lenny Bertoldo Club Mix
- Matt & Vito Mix
- Tin Tin Out Mix
- Johnny Vicious Dub Mix
Additionally, an acoustic version is available on M2M's "Mirror Mirror" single.
