(C. Carson Parks)

|
I know I'd 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'd drop into a quiet little place
|
and have a drink or two
|
And then I'd 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 from me
|
it's true and never seemed so right before
|
|
I practise everyday 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'd 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'd go and spoil it all
|
by saying something stupid
|
Like I love you
|
I love you
|
I love you
|
I do
