Something Stupid Songtext
von Five O'Clock Jazz Quartet

I know I stand in line until 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 chance you won't be leaving with me
And afterwards we drop into a quiet
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 lies you heard the night before
And though it′s just a line to you for me
It's true it never seemed so right before

I practice every day to find some clever
Lines to say to make that meaning come through
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′s so blue

And then I go and spoil it all by saying
Something stupid like "I love you"

"I love you"
"I love you"
