Emiliana Torrini - 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 callin' 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 can 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 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
heads up and split
the chair next to you is free

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

well it's closing tiiiiiiiime, 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 faaaace
guess I'll have another round

and I think that I just fell

in

love

with

you
