I wasn't very indiscreet and yet
|
That is a notion that I might as well forget
|
Friends look at me these days with fond surprise
|
But when I start to speak they roll their eyes
|
|
Let me tell you about her
|
Hush now, I've said too much
|
There's something indescribable I can't quite catch
|
Let me tell you about her
|
The way that she makes me feel
|
Then draw a curtain on this scene I shan't reveal
|
|
Some things are too personal
|
Too intimate to spill
|
And gentlemen don't speak of them
|
And this one never will
|
|
I wasn't very conversational
|
Accept to say that, "You're sensational"
|
Friends now regard me with indulgent smiles
|
But when I start to sing they run for miles
|
|
Let me tell you about her
|
Hush now, I've said too much
|
There's something indescribable I can't quite catch
|
Let me tell you about her
|
The way that she makes me feel
|
Then draw a curtain on this scene I shan't reveal
|
