| Like the back of an envelope
|
| Rehearsed and very carefully in reach
|
| My cool cucumber non-committal speech
|
| That I wrote while hanging out down at the beach
|
| And I shivered from the cold of the ice in my granite heart
|
| Knowing that you didn’t have a prayer
|
| And then I rang the bell and you were there and darling
|
| Then your face was full of me
|
| And then your eyes were too
|
| And I knew, that you knew that I knew that
|
| You knew that I knew that you knew that
|
| I knew that you knew that I knew
|
| I regained my self-control and I tried to close my big fat mouth
|
| Before 'I love you' fell out on the floor
|
| I didn’t feel like that man anymore
|
| I hit my funny elbow on the floor
|
| And then your brother asked if I had money for a haircut
|
| And the pimple on my neck began to hurt
|
| Suddenly I wished I’d changed my shirt and darling
|
| Then your face was full of me
|
| And then your eyes were too
|
| And I knew that you knew that I knew that
|
| You knew that I knew that you knew that
|
| I knew that you knew that I knew |
