I Was Telling Him About You lyrics

My arms were around him,

My eyes were aglow

The moment was tender,

The music was low

But while we were dancing,

I think you oughta know

That I was telling him about you.

He kept coming closer,

The magic was there

He wore an expression

That made people stare

It might of looked romantic but, darling, I swear

Don't you know? Oooh, yeah

I was telling him about you.

When you passed by and caught my eye

You didn't say a word.

You just turned about and walked right out

And the silence was the loudest I've ever heard.

Please, come back to me, daddy.

I must make you see

That things aren't always what they seem to be.

The boy in my arms meant nothing to me.

I was telling him about you.

I was telling him about you.
