I Can't Fall In Love

It's a cold and foggy morning in the hills of silverlake

outside the window helicopters circle in the air

the birds are calling loudly to make up for all the noise

but the morning traffic's stronger as it drowns out all their cries

here inside, my darling sleeps

the clock ticks on, I lie awake

the grey turns white and shadows grow

and all I think is

I can't fall in love

it's a monday in december, all the people go to work

try to make some money just to buy a better car

they'll see her in a magazine they'll buy on their way home

and think of her on beaches as the snow comes down outside

here inside my darling sleeps

the clock ticks on, I lie awake

the grey turns white and shadows grow

and all I think is

I can't fall in love

here inside, my darling sleeps

the clock ticks on, I lie awake

the grey turns white and shadows grow

the birds go quiet, an alarm goes off

now take the shower, still half asleep

mind slips away, the morning shave

the coffee cup, the kiss goodbye

I go to work and all I think is
