Story Behind The Song
Story of a little boy and his rabbit. He loved the rabbit so much he let him sleep with him. The rabbit crawled down to the end of the bed one night and couldn't breathe. His father laughed off the child's sadness telling him never to love anything or anyone too much , sadness and loss is part of life. Coming of age story.

Lyrics
Never Luv Someone too Much C) 2018 Words & Music S. Haworth
V1
I remember you told me once
When you were just a child
Your Mum bought you a rabbit friend
You called him Happy Smile
That rabbit loved you right on back
Slept with you at night
Then one cold morning without warning
One cold morning without warning
Ch
You see it got cold that night
He crawled down to your feet
there was no air down there in bed
He'd forgotten how to breathe
Daddy laughed and said dont fret now boy there's a lesson here for life
Never love someone too much
Never love someone too much
They'll only make you cry
Only make you cry
V2
Seems you lost a least a dozen rabbits on the way
You decided there and then you didnt need a friend anyway
After all these years I never ever thought I'd see the day
Then one cold morning without warning
One cold morning without warning
Ch
You see it got cold that night
He crawled down to your feet
there was no air down there in bed
He'd forgotten how to breathe
And your dad just laughed and said dont fret there's a lesson here for life
Never love someone too much
Never love someone too much
They'll only make you cry
Outro
Never love someone too much
Your eyes showed me no love no sparkle in that smile
One cold morning love died
Love died
