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
An d then I go and spoil it all
by saying something stu
pid 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,
for me it's 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 ripe,
your perfume fills my head,
the stars get red
and all the nights so blue
And then I go and spoil it all
by say ing something stupid like I
love you
Oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo,
oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo, oo.
The time is right,
your per fume fills my head,
the stars get red
and all the nights so blue.
And then I go and spoil it all
by saying something
stupid like I love you.
I love you.
I love you
