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 to me,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.
Now the room is crowded, people's everywhere
And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
Well, if you sit down with this old clown,
he'll 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.
Now the night does funny things inside a man.
These old tomcat feelings you don't understand.
I turn around and 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 I'm feeling like 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 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.
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.
