Falling for You

from Pinkerton

Holy cow, I think I've got one here
Now just what am I s'posed to do?
I've got a number of irrational fears
That I'd like to share with you
First, there's rules about old goats like me
Hangin' 'round with chicks like you 
But I do like you
And another one
You say "like" too much

But I'm shakin' at your touch
I like you way too much
My baby, I'm afraid I'm falling for you
And I'd do 'bout anything to get the hell out alive
Or maybe I would rather settle down with you

Holy moly, baby, wouldn't you know it?
Just as I was bustin' loose
I gotta go turn in my rock star card 
And get fat and old with you
'Cause I'm a burning a candle 
You're a gentle moth
Teaching me to lick a little bit kinder
And I do like you 
You're the lucky one
No, I'm the lucky one

But I'm shakin' at your touch
I like you way too much
My baby, I'm afraid I'm falling for you
And I'd do 'bout anything to get the hell out alive
Or maybe I would rather settle down with you

Holy sweet goddamn 
You left your cello in the basement
I admired the glowing stars and tried to play a tune
I can't believe how bad I suck, it's true
What could you possibly see in little old 3-chord me?
But I do like you and you like me too
I'm ready, let's do it baby 

But I'm shakin' at your touch
I like you way too much
My baby, I'm afraid I'm falling for you
And I'd do 'bout anything to get the hell out alive
Or maybe I would rather settle down with you
