George Gershwin - I Don't Think I'll Fall in Love Today lyrics
[George Gershwin - I Don't Think I'll Fall in Love Today lyrics]
Maybe marriage, maybe divorce
Into a jam love speeds two
It may be nature's course but we mustn't be
Like the other sheep
Better far if we look before we leap
Perhaps it's better after all
If we don't answer nature's call
Who knows if we'd agree?
You like you and I like me
I don't think I'll fall in love today
When evening shadows creep i like dancing
I like sleep
I don't think I'll fall in love today
Still, it might be fun to bring
Your carpet slippers
When the dinner bell would ring
I'd serve a can of kippers
Don't you know how to cook?
I could look in a book
I don't think Ill fall in love today
Love is a fever chronic
We can avoid it why take a chance?
Safer to be platonic
Why burn up with romance?
Adam without Eve happiness had known
So suppose we leave well enough alone?
Imagine signing up for life
Then finding peas roll off his knife
Do you sleep with window shut?
Window shut
Charming, but
I don't think I'll fall in love today
Did you pick that cravat?
I did that
Here's your hat
I don't think I'll fall in love today
It's as clear as A-B-C we're not agreeing
Incompatibility the judge would be decreeing
When all is said and done
Seems we two will never be one
Let's oh, let's not fall in love today
Do you play bridge or whist?
I like pinochle
I insist
I don't think I'll fall in love today
To what symphonies do you go?
All I know is "vo-de-o"
I don't think I'll fall in love today
Is the combination wrong?
I've wondered lately
We should never get along
Not even companionately
When all is said and done
Dear, we two will never be one
Let's oh, let's not fall in love today
