Falling in Love
by Lisa Loeb


She wanted to be a cowboy
She was shootin' 'em down
She was tramping around
He walked in crooked with the clear blue eyes
Mm-hm...
"There's a nice pool at my motel
You want to go for a swim?"
That night he moved in
    The time between meeting and finally leaving is
    Sometimes called falling in love
    The time between meeting and finally leaving
    Sometimes called falling in love
At night she'd wait for the sound of his feet on the doormat
The sound of his hand on the doorknob
The sound of her heart beating in her head
He'd go out playing nickel slots 'cause he knew he'd lose
She didn't know
So she couldn't choose

One night while sleeping along in her bed
The phone rang - she woke up and sat up and said
"What time is it? What time is it?"
"Well, it's 5:30 here and it's 2:30 there
And I won't be home tonight," he said
    The time between meeting and finally leaving is
    Sometimes called falling in love
    The time between meeting and finally leaving
    Sometimes called falling in love
Now she sits in a booth in a diner
Waiting for someone to take her order
Waiting for someone to come and sit down
She rubs the smudge off the photograph
Puts it back into her purse

The grey sky was romantic
'Cause he was holding her hand,
He was her man...
    The time between meeting and finally leaving is
    Sometimes called falling in love
    The time between meeting and finally leaving
    Sometimes called falling in love
    Sometimes called falling in love
She wanted to be a cowboy
She was shootin' 'em down
She was tramping around...
