Lyrics and translation
Original
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. Ah, yeah.
Then afterwards, we drop into a quiet little place and have a drink or two. Da, da, da, da.
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, with me it's true, it never felt so right before. Yeah, felt is good.
I practice every day to find some clever lines to say to make the meaning come true.
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. "
Yeah!
Ooh.
The time is right, your perfume fills my head, and the stars get red, and oh, the night's so blue. Da, da, da, da.
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.
Oh, that was fun.
-That was so fun! -That was so much fun.
I could-- that one I could just sing over, and over, and over, and over.
Me too!
