Something Stupid Lyrics

Something Stupid

(C. Carson Parks)
I know I'd 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'd drop into
a quiet little place and have a drink or two
and then I'd 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 true
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 so blue
and then I'd 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 so blue
and then I'd go and spoil it all
by saying something stupid like I love you
I love you, I love you, I do
