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

well i hope that i don't fall in love with you. 'cause falling in love just makes me blue. well 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 tomcat 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 some company. well i turn around to look at you

and you look back at me

the guy you're with has up and split 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. last call for drinks

i'll have another stout. well i turn around to look at you; you're nowhere to be found

i search the place for your lost face

guess i'll have another round. and i think that i just fell in love with you.
