Something Stupid

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 
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 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" 


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 sayin' something stupid like "I love you" 

I love you
I love you 
I love you 

FADE 
I love you
