Circle left
I know I stand in line, until you think you have the time
To spend an evening with me
Left allemande the corner, dosado you own
Left allemande and weave the ring
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"

Heads square thru count 'em 4 hands you do
And make a right hand star
The heads star left, roll it one time and then
Same pair, right & left thru
Half sashay, turn thru, left allemande
Swing your girl and promenade
And then I go and spoil it all
By saying something stupid like "I love you"

Circle left
I practice every day to find some clever lines to say
To make the meaning come through
Left allemande the corner, dosado you own
Left allemande and weave the ring
I can see it in your eyes, that you despise the same old lies
You heard the night before
And then I go and spoil it all
By saying something stupid like "I love you"

Circle left
But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late
And I'm alone with you
Left allemande the corner, dosado you own
Left allemande and weave the ring
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"
