UFOs

​

I've fallen for magic potions

I've fallen on difficult times

I’ve fallen for cockeyed notions

And some of the stupidest lines

 

Someone told me 'bout the UFOs

And I believed every word was true

But I never thought I'd be falling for you

 

I've fallen for all of these promises

Nobody intended to keep

I judge a man by what he does what he says

But you’ve always been a mystery

 

I've fallen for the dumbest tricks

Perpetrated by the dimmest of fools

But i never thought i'd be falling for you

 

Well you think you know

What you're gonna do

When all your life

Is in front of you

But then you find

That you took a wrong turn

And you don't know how you're gonna get through

 

I fall ill once or twice every year

And i fall asleep every night

I fall down when I drink

Too much beer

When I ain't been livin' it right

 

Now I’ve fallen in love before

And into deep depression too

But I never thought I'd be falling for you

 

Well you live your life

In a fantasy

Where everything you do

Was meant to be

But then you find

That you really didn't know about

Everything you thought you knew

And your heart start to wonder what

Is and what isn't true

Cause you did some things that you thought

You wouldn't ever do

And you took a wrong turn

And you don't know how you're gonna get through

 

Someone told me ‘bout the UFOs

I believed every word was true

But I never thought I'd be falling for

Never thought I'd be peeking through your door

No I never thought I'd be falling for you
