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
