Well, I hope that I don't fall in love with you
'Cause falling in love just makes me blue
When 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
This old 'tom-cat' feeling 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's 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, has up and split, the chair next to you is free
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you

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
