Well I hope that I don't fall in love with you
|
Cause falling in love just makes me blue
|
While the music plays and you display your heart for me to see
|
I had a beer and now I hear you calling out for me
|
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you
|
|
Well the room is crowded, people everywhere
|
And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
|
Well if you sit down with this old clown, take that frown and break it
|
Before the evening's gone away, I think that we could make it
|
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you
|
|
Well the night does funny things inside a man
|
These old tom-cat feelings you don't understand
|
Well I turn around to look at you, you light a cigarette
|
I wish I had the guts to bum one, but we've never met
|
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you
|
|
I can see that you are lonesome just like me
|
and it being late, you'd like some company
|
Well I turn around to look at you, and you look back at me
|
The guy you're with he's up and splits, the chair next to you's free
|
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me
|
|
Now it's closing time, the music's fading out
|
|

I hope that I don't fall in love with you
