Upon a veil of midnight blue

There hung a crescent moon

To light the view

But you didn't whisper the words

When the moment arose

I wonder how she knows You find your tongue is tied

Your words escape and hide

But she's so patient and kind

She's prepared to read your mind

That's all very well till you find

Because of the wine you drank

Your mind is just blank You find your tongue is tied again

Your words escape and hide again

But she's so patient and kind

She's prepared to read your mind

That's all very well till you find

Because of the wine you drank

Your mind is just blank I wonder how she knows

I guess she will wonder until

You pluck up the courage to tell her how you feel

So close you can feel her heart trembling

You look in her eyes as they close

I wonder how she knows

I wonder how she knows
