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 you still 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 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 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
(Interlude)
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
