I know I stand in line
until you think you
have the time
to spend an evening
with me
And if we go
someplace to dance
I know that there's a
chance you won't be
leaving with me
And afterwards we
drop into a
quiet little place
and have a
drink or two
And then I go
and spoil it all
by saying something
stupid like
"I love you"
I can see it in
your eyes that you
despise the same
old lies you heard
the night before
And though it's
just a line to you,
for me it's true
It never seemed
so right before
I practice every day
to find some
clever lines to say
to make the meaning
come through
But then I think I'll
wait until the
evening gets late
And I'm alone
with you
The time is right
Your perfume fills
my head, the stars
get red and oh the
night's so blue
And then I go and
spoil it all by saying
something stupid
like "I love you"
The time is right
Your perfume fills
my head, the stars
get red and oh the
night's so blue
And then I go and
spoil it all by saying
something stupid
like "I love you"
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
