You Never Know When You're Gonna Fall In Love

I thought I knew just what I want
But, girl, as it turned out
I guess I really didn't know at all
I've been playin' life by the ear
Now the words of love I hear
Is so very clear
Whenever you are near
It's like a spell that's taken over me
What's happenin', my dear?
It wasn't in my plans to fall in love
But, girl, what can I do?
You see, I'm so in love with you
I'm so in love, baby
You never know when
(You're gonna fall in love)
Oh, it just seems to happen
You never know when
(You're gonna fall in love)
You see, love has no sense of time
You never know when
You're gonna fall in love
Love
Since you came around
There's been a certain change in me
And in your love I felt
I slowly found myself turnin' around
How could I let myself go?
I guess you'll never really know
Ah, ah, you never, never, never, ever, ever know
You never know when
(You're gonna fall in love)
Oh, boy, it just seems to happen
You never know when
(You're gonna fall in love)
You see, love has no sense of time
You never know when
You're gonna fall
Love has no sense of time
Love has no sense of time
Ooh, hoo, you never know when
You're gonna fall in love
Ooh, ohh
