I Hope That I Dont Fall in Love With You — текст песни (Tom Waits)

Well I hope that I dont 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 dont 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 evenings gone away,

I think that we could make it,

And I hope that I dont fall in love with you.



Well the night does funny things inside a man

These old tom-cat feelings you dont understand,

Well I turn around to look at you,

You light a cigarette,

I wish I had the guts to bum one,

But weve never met,

And I hope that I dont fall in love with you.



I can see that you are lonesome just like me,

And it being late, youd like some some company,

Well I turn around to look at you,

And you look back at me,

The guy youre with has up and split,

The chair next to yous free,

And I hope that you dont fall in love with me.



Now its closing time, the musics fading out

Last call for drinks, Ill have another stout.

Well I turn around to look at you,

Youre nowhere to be found,

I search the place for your lost face,

Guess Ill have another round

And I think that I just fell in love with you.
