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 sayin' something
stupid like "I love you"
I love you~
