Thomas Dolby - That's Why People Fall In Love lyrics

That's why Why people fall in love Trains 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 love Who'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 love And 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 love Trains 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...
