Lyrics

Well I hope that I don't fall in love with you
Falling in love just makes me blue
Well the music plays and you display a path for me to see
Had a beer and now I hear you calling out on me
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 indeed oh would you like some some company
Well I turn around and look at you, 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
Well it's closing time, music's fading out
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout
Well I turn around and look at you, you're nowhere to be found
Search the place for your lost face, and I'll have another round
And I think that I just fell in love with you
