Somethin' Stupid

i know i stand in line
untill you think
you have the time
to spend an evening with me
and if we go
some place to dance
i know that
there's a change
you won't be
leaving with me
then afterwards
we drop into
a quit 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 lines
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 untill the
evening get's late
and i'm alone with you

the time is right
you're parfum fills my head
the stars get red
and oh the night's so blue
and then i go and spoill it all
by saying something stupid
like i love you
i love you
i love you
i love you
