Somethin’ Stupid (From “Norah Jones is Playing Along” Podcast)

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

(Oh, yeah)

Then afterwards we drop into a quiet little place

And have a drink or two

(La-dee-da-da)

And then I go and spoil it all

By saying somethin' 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, with me it's true

And never felt so right before

(Yeah, I felt this good)

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's so blue

And then I go and spoil it all

By saying somethin' stupid like, "I love you"

(Yeah)

(Ooh)

The time is right, your perfume fills my head

The stars get red, and, oh, the night's so blue

(Da-da-la-da)

And then I go and spoil it all

By saying somethin' stupid like, "I love you"

I love you

I love you

I love you

Ahh-ah (oh, that was the one)

That was so fun

(That was so much fun, I could-)

(That-, that one I could just sing over and over and over and over) me too
