KIRSTEN:
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aaaahhh

CROSBY:
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

Forevermore 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

KIRSTEN:
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

Forevermore 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

BC:  A smile may show it
DK:  Your eyes may glow
BC:  Before you know it
DK:  I'm sure I know

DK:  So, if you fall
BC:  If you fall in love
DK:  In love that way
BC:  In just that way
BOTH:
Oh, wouldn't I be thrilled to hear you say
I had a lovely accident today

BC:  Yes, I had a lovely accident today
DK:  Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah

As recorded by BING CROSBY for record release, 21st June 1950:

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

Forevermore 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
