Hope I Don't Fall In Love...

Description

Hope I Don't Fall In Love With You - Tom Waits

Well I hope that I don't fall in love with you
'Cause falling in love just makes me blue,
Well the music plays and you display your heart for me to see,
I had a beer and now I hear you calling out for me
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.

Well the room is crowded, there's people everywhere
And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
Well if you sit down with this old clown, take that frown and break it,
Before the evening's gone away, I think that we could make it,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you.

I can see that you are lonesome just like me, and it being late,
You'd like some some company,
Well I've had two, I look at you, and you look back at me,
The guy you're with has up and split, the chair next to you's free,
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me.
And I hope that you don't fall in love with me.

Now it's closing time, the music's fading out
Last call for drinks, I'll have another stout.
Turn around to look at you, you're nowhere to be found,
I search the place for your lost face, guess I'll have another round
And I think that I just fell in love with you.

Oddly enough, the first thing that drew my attention here was the writing on the building in the background (what does it say? :giggle:)

I have to say this is a great example for black&white used well. Personally, I too often shoot in color and then can't seem to bring myself to change the image to black and white, but it works well here. It's a little busy though, I'm not sure what exactly I should be focusing on. The title and description of the deviation lead me to believe the main focus is on the couple, I could be wrong though. I guess this would be easier to determine if the depth of field was different. Great, spontaneous shot either way :)
