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 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 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.
