Accidents Will Happen

Accidents Will Happen

music by Jimmy Van Heusen (left)
lyric by Johnny Burke (right)

The likes of you may never be attracted to
The likes of me
But accidents will happen and I'll be around.
And maybe there'll be no one else but me around...

Forever more may never start; you may ignore my hopeful heart
And chances are I'm not the one to make you fall,
But accidents will happen, after all.

A smile may show it; your eyes may glow.
Before you know it, I'm sure I'll know...so...

If you fall in just that way, oh, wouldn't I be thrilled to hear you say,
I had a lovely accident today...
Your eyes may glow; I'm sure I'll know...
