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 I know I stand in line until you think you have the time to spend an evening with me

And though it's just a lie to you for me it's true it never seems so right before
I've got to save the 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
So
The time is right
Your perfume fills my head
The stars get red and all 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 all 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
I love you
I love you
I love you
