People Fall In Love

Saw you sitting on the train
Something in your eyes spoke to me
The kind of thing you can’t explain
Somehow you know someone you don’t

I sat there staring as you read
But when you looked up, I got caught
Embarrassed, I just turned my head
Turned back and smiled ‘cuz girl, why not

People fall in love everyday
People fall in love everyday

We stopped at Douglass Boulevard
A street magician with a dove got on
The closing door caught his scarf

People fall in love everyday
People fall in love everyday

Rizzo’s Deli and the Red Sox’ blues
Got as far as last names

I said “God, I’m such a fool…
That was my stop we just passed”
You said “Well, now what do we do…
I missed mine 3 stops back”

People fall in love everyday
