I Was Telling Her About You

(album: Rapture - 1962)

My arms were around her
My eyes were a-glow
The moment was tender
The music was low
But while we were dancing
I think you should know
I was telling her about you

She kept coming closer
The magic was there
She wore an expression
That made people stare
It looked so romantic
But darling, I swear
I was telling her about you

When you passed by
And caught my eye
You didn't say a word
You turned about
And walked right out
And the silence was the loudest I've ever heard

Come back to me, darling
I must make you see
That things aren't always
What they seem to be
The girl in my arms
Meant nothing to me
I was telling her about you
I was telling her about you

Come back to me, darling
I must make you see
That things aren't always
What they seem to be
The girl in my arms
Meant nothing to me
I was telling her
I was telling her
I was telling her about you
