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
And 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
