F
I know I stand in line, until you think you have the time
C7
To spend an evening with me
Β
And if we go someplace to dance, I know that there's a chance
F
You won't be leaving with me
F7
And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place
Bb
And have a drink or two
C7
And then I go and spoil it all, by saying something stupid
F
Like: "I love you"
Β
F7
I can see it in your eyes, that you despise the same old lies
Bb
You heard the night before
C7
And though it's just a line to you, for me it's true
F7
It never seemed so right before
Β
I practice every day to find some clever lines to say
To make the meaning come through
But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late
And I'm alone with you
Β
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
