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 lines
You heard the night before
And though it's just a line
To you for me
It' true it never seemed
So right before
I practice every day
To find some clever lines to say
To make the meaning come true
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 are bright 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 bright and
Oh the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil
It all by saying something supid
Like I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
