I Hope That I Dont Fall In Love With You by 10,000 Maniacs Lyrics
[ Tom Waits ]
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 you don't fall in love with me
Well the night does funny things inside a man
These old tom-cat feelings you don't understand
Well 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 it being late
You'd like some some company
Well I turn around and 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 and the music's fading out
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout
Well I turn around to look for 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
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 you don't fall in love with me
Well the night does funny things inside a man
These old tom-cat feelings you don't understand
Well 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 it being late
You'd like some some company
Well I turn around and 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 and the music's fading out
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout
Well I turn around to look for 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
