intro - 4 bars guitar
verse 1
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."
bridge 1
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's true
And never seemed so right before.
verse 2
I practise 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."
verse 3
I practise 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."
outro
I love you I love you I love you
