Is It Wrong (to Want To Be Loved By Someone As Lovely As You)? Lyrics

Is It Wrong (to Want To Be Loved By Someone As Lovely As You)? lyrics

CHORUS

Is it wrong

To want

To be loved by someone as lovely as
you

(x2)



I saw her sittin’ ‘cross a smoky room

She
appeared to be alone

She had a face that make the angels swoon

She
had a figure make a dead man moan

I ordered one of what she was drinkin’
and

Sent it over with a paper napkin

On the other side, I had
written

Nothin’ fancy, just a simple question



CHORUS



She asked the waiter where the drink had come from

He pointed
over in my direction

She looked at me and she nodded thank you

And
then he told her ‘bout my inscription

She turned it over and read it
slowly

It was subtle, but I think she smiled

Then she got up and
started walkin’ towards me

I tried to hide it as my heart went wild

When she said



CHORUS



She took me by the hand, led
me out to the floor

Got real close and we started dancin’

I said,
“I can’t believe this, you’re so amazing

And I didn’t think I stood a
chance and

Here we are romancin’



The bottle broke and it
woke me from the daydream

I looked over there, she was gone

So I
went over and I found that napkin

With the circle where she put her drink
on

I fold it up and put it in my pocket

Paid the tab and I hit the
pavement

Started hummin’ as I walk along

I didn’t get the girl, but
I got this song



CHORUS
