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 are chance You won't be leaving with me And afterward, we'll drop into a quiet little place and have a drink of two And then I 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, for me, it's true And never seemed so right before I love this 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 The time is right, your perfume fills my head The star gets red and, oh, the night's so blue And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like, "I love you" ♪ 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 are chance You won't be leaving with me And afterward, we'll drop into a quiet little place and have a drink of two And then I 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, for me, it's true And never seemed so right before I love this 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 The time is right, your perfume fills my head The star gets red and, oh, the night's so blue And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like, "I love you" I love you I love you
