That's Why People Fall In Love

That's why

Why people fall in loveTrains collide on a regular basis

Stars explode and fireworks don't

A sea runs dry and a moon leaves its orbit

And we're on this one thinking it won't

True to form our vision of order

Was cloud-free up until

A certain Mr. Murphy done us the dirty

Served us up a bitter pill

Again and again the laws of nature prove laws aren't enough

And then the voice of reason flies off the deep-end

That's why people fall in loveWho's the dudes who's leaking the secrets?

Astronauts and heretics

Archimedes just couldn't keep it

And look what happened to the Greeks

Uri Gagarin told Joe Stalin

But Joe's not telling me

And Dicky Burton's final curtain

Fell before he spilled the beans

Albert Einstein nailed Space/Time

But the wild thing had him stumped

Al baby, two and two makes five and a quarter

That's why people fall in loveAnd our lives are a grain of sand

Snack-time for a moonbeam

And tonight is a perfect night

To dissolve in this ocean of lights

And fall in loveTrains collide on a regular basis

Stars explode and fireworks don't

A sea runs dry and a moon leaves its orbit

And we're on this one hoping it won't

I've been all around this flat old Earth

And I still ain't got it sussed

But I guess some nights the universe runs circles around us

That's why people fall in love

That's why

Why people fall in love...
