F
I know I stand in line, until you think you have the time
C7
To spend an evening with me
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"
[Refrão] F7
I can see it in your eyes, that you despise the same old lies
Bb
You heard the night before
G7
And though it's just a line to you, for me it's true
C7
It never seemed so right before
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
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
("I love you, I love you,...")
