Something Stupid

After listening to Clark Kent’s poem “ A walking Cliché “ from the nice blog Passion In Words , immediately I remembered the lyrics of the famous song sung by Robbie Williams and Nicole Kidman. I think that most of you know it well. Yep, that is Something Stupid :

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 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 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
I love you

Well, you can find that lovely song by searching it on YouTube, of course.

Enjoy and Happy Singing !
