Accidentally In LoveCounting Crows

By Will Martin

Lyrics So she said, "What's the problem baby?"What's the problem I don't knowWell maybe I'm in love, think about it every timeI think about it, can't stop thinking 'bout it

How much longer will it take to cure this Just to cure it 'cause I can't ignore it if it's loveMakes me wanna turn around and face meBut I don't know nothing about love

Come on, come onTurn a little fasterCome on, come on The world will follow afterCome on, come onBecause everybody's after love

So I said, "I'm a snowball running"Running down into the springThat's coming all this love melting underBlue skies belting out sunlight, shimmering love

Well baby I surrender to the strawberry ice creamNever ever end of all this loveWell I didn't mean to do itBut there's no escaping your love

These lines of lightningMean we're never aloneNever alone, no, no

Come on, come onMove a little closerCome on, come onI want to hear you whisperCome on, come onSettle down inside my love

AccidentallyI'm in love, I'm in loveI'm in love, I'm in loveI'm in love, I'm in loveAccidentallyI'm in love, I'm in loveI'm in love, I'm in loveI'm in love, I'm in loveAccidentally
