Couldn`t Fall In Love Lyrics

Couldn`t Fall In Love lyrics

(Paul Foglino) 

He ain`t handsome, he ain`t witty, he ain`t cute
Lives in his mother`s house, wears a brown suit
He works, gets paid twice a month
Tells his friends, "Yeah, I had a girlfriend, once"
Doesn`t do too much, he just kind of hangs around
Couldn`t fall in love until it came and knocked him down
She`s got sisters, they make her cry
Mom says, "You get your looks from your father`s side"
"You`re a very pretty girl" her daddy swears
She`s got a mole on her left cheek with three black hairs
Bought a beat up Ford with what she`d saved for a wedding gown
Couldn`t fall in love until it came and knocked her down
They meet at a place, a place where people meet
"Life ain`t all that bad" he says, and she says, "I agree"
It`s a fairy tale for a dragon and a witch
They`re perfect for each other, she ain`t pretty he ain`t rich
They`re a little bit surprised by what they`ve found
Couldn`t fall in love until it came and knocked them down
A pretty girl with coal black hair
Takes her handsome beau to a family affair
He kisses mama`s right cheek and he gives daddy`s hand a shake
Thinks to himself, "This must be some mistake"
He`s just seen it come and go and come and go around
Couldn`t fall in love until it came and knocked him down
